Ten Jesuit priests who worked in New Jersey institutions were among a list published by the Roman Catholic religious order Tuesday of members who were credibly accused of sexually abusing children.

The USA Northeast Province Jesuits, which encompasses New England, New York and northern New Jersey, unveiled the roster of 50 priests accused of abusing minors between 1950 and 1996.

Nine of the Jesuits who served in New Jersey worked at St. Peter’s Prep High School, St. Peter’s University or St. Peter’s Parish, all in Jersey City.
