A preliminary inquiry for a former Moncton priest facing another allegation of indecent assault is going to take place in September.
Yvon Arsenault, who is serving a four-year prison sentence for molesting nine boys while he was a priest in the 1970s in the Shediac and Collette areas, appeared in Moncton court Wednesday morning on the latest charge.
The former Catholic priest, who has been behind bars since February, was in handcuffs as he was escorted into the courtroom by a sheriff’s deputy and sat down in the prisoner’s box.
Arsenault pleaded guilty last year to the sex crimes that put him in prison.
