Ottawa Police have charged a retired Roman Catholic Priest with indecent assault against a seven-year-old.
The charges come after a three month investigation into a “series of inapropriate contacts” between a Roman Catholic Priest and a seven-year-old boy in Ottawa between 1971 and 1973.
Jacques Faucher, 76, faces one count of gross indecency and one count of indecent assault. He will appear in court on Thursday for a bail hearing, and the investigation is ongoing.
