On Wednesday, the Catholic Diocese of Richmond made waves when it published a list of 42 names of clergy with “credible and substantiated” allegations of sexual abuse involving minors.
Some of the names were priests who were assigned in Catholic churches in Virginia Beach and Norfolk.
One of the priests, Rev. Msgr. Joseph Thang Xuan Pham, was a parochial vicar at St. Bede Catholic Church in Williamsburg from 1985 to 1988, his first assignment after being ordained, according to an online biography.
