The Archdiocese of Omaha announced Friday it is beginning the next step of an investigation into an Omaha priest, accused of sexually abusing minors.
The complaint was brought against Rev. Alfred Salanitro about one year ago.
According to Deacon Timothy McNeil, chancellor of the Archdiocese of Omaha, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) reviewed the findings of the archdiocese’s investigation, and advised Archbishop George Lucas to resolve the matter through an administrative process.
That process consists of two canon lawyers who live outside of the Archdiocese of Omaha, and will assist Lucas in determining Rev. Salanitro’s innocence or guilt.
