MANCHESTER – Annual reports that Catholic Medical Center files with the IRS make no mention of a consulting contract between the hospital and the Rev. Msgr. Edward Arsenault, the Catholic priest under investigation for possible financial improprieties and an improper relationship with an adult.
The financial reports appear to contradict a statement released Monday, when the Manchester hospital acknowledged it signed a contract for consulting services with Arsenault in 2009, after he resigned from the hospital board of directors.
A hospital spokesman on Tuesday said he could not comment, citing an investigation by the New Hampshire Attorney General into Arsenault, who sat on the hospital board for 11 years.
