Rev. Bill Moloney will return as pastor of Immaculate Conception Parish on Wednesday after a police investigation for sexual misconduct did not result in criminal charges and the diocese completed an investigation of its own.
The Catholic Diocese of Peterborough issued a written statement on Monday to say that Moloney will return to his job July 12.
The statement indicates that parishioners at Immaculate Conception Parish on Rogers St. in East City were told on Sunday about the reinstatement.
Rev. Moloney was put on administrative leave in Nov. 2016, after allegations of sexual misconduct were reported to the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).
The misconduct was alleged to have occurred in the 1980s, at a summer camp where Moloney was the long-time director.
