Two lawsuits were filed Tuesday alleging a Jesuit seminarian and former Penn State University professor sexually assaulted two children and raped one of them years after his superiors were made aware of his admission to crime against children.
According to a press release, Father Leonard Riforgiato was transferred from New York to Our Lady of Victory Church in State College.
The release states Riforgiato was an associate professor at the Shenango Valley Campus of Penn State, where he taught for 27 years, and focused on youth activities.
