Status: Accused

Diocese: Diocese of Albany NY

In 12/2003 the Diocese announced that it had cleared LeFevre of wrongdoing after two brothers accused LeFevre of propositioning them for sex in 1969 when they were 15 and 17. They originally complained to the Diocese in 1997 and then again in 2002. The Diocese also said it told the two brothers in 1998 or 1999 that LeFevre had been cleared.

Our Database of Publicly Accused does not state or imply that individuals facing allegations are guilty of a crime or liable for civil claims. The reports contained in the database are merely allegations. The U.S. legal system presumes that a person accused of or charged with a crime is innocent until proven guilty. Similarly, individuals who may be defendants in civil actions are presumed not to be liable for such claims unless a plaintiff proves otherwise. Admissions of guilt or liability are not typically a part of civil or private settlements. For more information, see our posting policy.
