The Catholic Diocese of Charlotte has made additions to a list of clergy it considers credibly accused of sexual abuse.

The diocese initally published a list in late December that included 14 former clergy members and 23 clergy members who were assigned here but were accused elsewhere.

The update, noted on the diocese’s website, includes two new names. The first is Harold Johnson, a Boston priest who served at St. Patrick in Charlotte in the late 1950s. Johnson was listed on the Archdiocese of Boston’s list of credibly accused clergy members, first published in 2011.
