“Yes, there are priests in the Diocese of Buffalo with allegations against them”

As the first day of filing opens under the New York Child Victims Act, dozens of suits have already been filed against the Catholic Diocese of Buffalo.

During an in-studio appearance on WBEN Wednesday morning, priest abuse survivor and advocate James Faluszczak announced suits are being filed against more priests actively serving in the diocese.

Faluszczak says a suit is being filed against Father Paul Nogaro who is currently serving at St. Stephen Church on Grand Island and is accused of abuse while serving at St. Mary of Sorrows. Additionally, Father Peter Popadick, longtime secretary to Bishop Edward Head and currently serving at St. Aloysius, is alleged to have committed abuse at Bishop Fallon High School.
