The Roman Catholic Diocese of Harrisburg has named a 38th priest accused of child sexual abuse.

Msgr. Joseph Bradley was accused of sexual abuse after his death, the diocese said Monday.

Bishop Ronald Gainer last week released the names of 37 priests at 34 other members of the church who have had allegations made against them since the 1940’s.

The diocese said it added Bradley’s name to the list after receiving additional information.

Also, a spokesman said additional accusations have been made against church members who were on the initial version of the list.
