Diocese of Lincoln: Sexual advances made by former priest
The Catholic Diocese of Lincoln has released the findings of an independent investigation into a former priest who was accused of instances of abuse.
The abuse allegations centered around Msgr. Kalin, a priest who ran the Newman Center from 1970-1998, which is the place where UNL students go to practice their faith in college.
The Catholic Diocese of Lincoln said, “The investigator’s report indicates that Msgr. Kalin’s leadership style was demanding and authoritarian, and his use of alcohol, cigarettes and frequent visits to casinos was confirmed. The investigation also revealed that Msgr. Kalin did, on occasion, make sexual advances against some college students and seminarians. Kalin died in 2008.”
