We’re diving deeper into the clergy sex abuse investigation across the state by taking a look at where some of those priests used to work.
We were the first to report that the Diocese of Gaylord had released a list of all the priests credibly accused of sexual misconduct involving minors.
That list includes ten priests but does not include a record of where they spent time.
Father Ronald Gronowski was serving as pastor of parishes in Lake City and Manton when he was removed from the ministry back in 2002.
It came after a 1995 allegation surfaced accusing Gronowski of sexual misconduct back in the 1970’s.
We also know Gronowski spent time in Indian River.
Father Jim Holtz was pastor in Fife Lake and Kalkaska when he was removed from ministry in 2002.
He’s accused of sexually abusing a minor while drunk in the 1980’s.
