PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Parishioners at St. Lawrence O’Toole in Garfield were expecting to see long-time priest Father James Graham at mass on Sunday.
Instead, they were read a letter about sexual abuse allegations against the 72-year-old pastor.
Father Ron Lengwin, the spokesman for the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, told KDKA’s Kym Gable the alleged abuse happened in the late 1960′s.
The accuser just came forward recently.
Lengwin says the accusation is considered “credible.”
