The Database of Publicly Accused Priests 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.

Anderson
 Alexander R. 1975 P Settled Diocesan Accused in 2002 of abusing a boy in 1987 at St. Joseph's Home for Boys in St Louis, where Anderson was the chaplain. Auxiliary Bishop Joseph Naumann stated in 2002 that the archdiocese investigated the complaint and found it without merit. Anderson denied the allegation and filed a slander suit against the man making claim. Complainant then sued him. Both men dropped their lawsuits in 2004, with the archdiocese paying $22,500 for the complainant's counseling but admitting no wrongdoing. Another man came forward in 2004 to allege abuse in 1988. Naumann, then the archdiocesan administrator, voiced support for Anderson after an archdiocesan committee found the second allegation without merit. Anderson was pastor of St Rose of Lima church in De Soto as of 8/20/20. New suit in 2/20 claimed abuse of a boy in the late 1908s at the Home. The archdiocese deemed the allegation "without merit."

Bender would take the boys on overnight trips, insisted they sleep without underwear, then assault them. He would show anger when a child resisted. His acts against boys included kissing, fondling, masturbation and oral sex. Altoona-Johnstown, PA Source:

Flynn merely told him that Dutel was "cured" and the diocese needed him because of priest shortage. In 1992, another young man told an attorney that Dutel abused him in the 1970s when he was ages 9-14. Fontana included the original information in a 1995 affidavit in an insurance case but nothing ever done. Dutel remained as active priest and was working as pastor of St. Edmond Catholic Church in Lafayette. He had also worked in elementary and high schools. In 2014 Dutel denied all allegations and remained active. Diocese was defending him and said it had no records regarding the investigation that cleared him. Bishop refused to release list of accused priests. DA has said he will not investigate further until a victim asks him to do so. Lafayette, LA Source:

Inman Leonard 1961 P Sued Diocesan Inman was named as one of 9 "predator" priests known to the diocese per lawsuits filed by 5 individuals against 2 other priests in 2/03. Bishop Adamec said Inman had been out of public ministry since 1989 and that assignments while he was active were deliberate and done for monitoring. Per the PA AG's 3/1/16 Grand Jury Report, "Bishop Hogan was very much aware that Inman was raping children..." while assigned to the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament 1971-86. One boy reported to police in 1986 that Inman started raping him when he was 11-yrs-old, 4 yrs earlier. Inman was known to "troll" the area for sex with youths, after which he would pay them. Hogan denied police investigators access to the Cathedral. They wanted to wire a witness, but Inman suddenly stopped "trolling the ally [sic] for sex." The investigation stopped after Hogan met with the Altoona Police Chief, and Inman was sent for treatment. He died 6/1/01. Altoona-Johnstown, PA Source:

 Edgardo Arrunataegui 1983 P Accused Diocesan Ordained in Peru. Worked in Honduras for a time, arrived in Orange Diocese in 1987. Left to perform "missionary work" in Peru early 1990s. First public identification 1/04. Diocese dealt with the allegations "years ago" but didn't tell police until 2004. As of 2009 he was found to be working as priest in Madrid but still listed as part of Diocese of Chimbote in Peru. Found in 2017 by news team, working as a hospital chaplain for the diocese in Chimbote. Since leaving Orange in early 1990s had "bounced around the world" using different versions of his name (e.g. Horacio Jimenez, Edgardo Arrunategui, etc.) Chimbote bishop said the 2017 news story was false, and Orange diocese list was irrelevant.

Lonergan
 Kevin 2014 P Convicted Diocesan Charged with felony corruption of minors and misdemeanor indecent assault in 8/18 after accused in 6/18 of groping a 17-year-old girl and sending her nude photos of himself. Lonergan reportedly met the girl at St. Francis of Assisi in Allentown and asked other parishioners for her cell phone number. Pled guilty in 11/19. Sentenced in 2/20 to 1 to 2 years in state prison and to register as a sex offender for 15 years. Case sent to the Vatican. In 2016, prior to Lonergans's transfer to St. Francis of Assisi, he was accused of molesting a 15-year-old girl. The girl's family reportedly would not cooperate with an investigation. The diocese disputed that Lonergan was transferred to a new parish improperly, saying the County Children and Youth found the accusation to be unfounded. The D.A. and the diocese's investigator both said the allegation was not "unfounded" but was "unsubstantiated" because there wasn't a victim able to testify. Allentown, PA Source:

Millard
 Daniel F. M. 1952 P Sued Diocesan Named in the RICO pleading filed in New Jersey in 1994. A woman alleged that Millard, her uncle, sexually abused her beginning when she was age five in 1957 and continuing for 8 years. She said her sister, who died in 6/20, was also abused by Millard. The sister's son acknowledged to a reporter that his mother told him Millard had sexually abused her. Other relatives were angry about the allegations by the woman against "Fr. Dan" and cut off contact with her. Millard died 5/27/73 at age 50. The woman filed suit 2/4/20 against the Camden diocese. Per the diocese, the accusations could not be deemed credible because there were no other complaints in Millard's personnel file and because of "statements from [his accuser's] relatives." The same woman alleges abuse by Sr. Eileen Shaw from the age of 15. Camden, NJ Source:

Mundy
 Joseph T. 1981 P Accused Diocesan A religious educator suspected during a church retreat in 1994 that a 14-year-old former altar boy was being groomed for sex by Mundy. She reported the matter to Msgr. Alan Placa (later accused of abuse himself). The boy's mother and parish were protective of the priest, so the boy didn't disclose until 2002, when he was age 21, that Mundy sexually abused him. In one incident, he said that when he was 14, Mundy took him to a gay nightclub, plied him with alcohol and pressured him to have sex. Mundy would take the boy on ski trips to concerts, and Broadway shows. The boy slept over in the rectory every Saturday night. The alleged victim claimed that Mundy also abused his close friend. Mundy refused to go for treatment to St. Luke's but did agree to private counseling on Long Island. He eventually left the priesthood. He was identified as Priest A in the 2003 Grand Jury Report.

Archdiocesan lawyer contacted county DA in 12/13 and 1/14. DA did not investigate because at age 16, the accuser was beyond the AL age of consent. Archdiocese did not place Savoie on leave, and it is not known whether AL child protection officials were notified. The archdiocese reportedly investigated by 2/16/14, when Savoie announced to parishioners: he had been accused, he 'adamantly denied' the allegation, and as the archdiocese 'has determined that there is no evidence to support the accusation,' he 'will remain serving as pastor of St Pius X,' where the principal of the grammar school reports to him. In Savoie's 9/30/14 deposition in a case accusing him of ignoring bullying complaints at the school, he stated that the Fairhope boy was working part-time at St Lawrence. Mobile, AL Source:

 Joseph A. 1966 P Accused Diocesan Accused at 3:00 pm on 3/30/18, Good Friday, outside the cathedral in Buffalo, of sexually assaulting a boy age 13 in 1968. The survivor stated he understands he was the 'first of many victims.' He met Schuster at Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Niagara Falls, where Schuster helped out. In 1968 Schuster was assigned to Holy Name of Jesus in Buffalo and then as faculty at the Preparatory Seminary in Buffalo. After an event relating to the Vietnam War, Schuster pressed the boy to stay overnight at the priest's apartment, rather than bike home in the dark. The boy told his mother about the abuse the next day. The diocese stated Schuster was not on its 3/20/19 list of 'diocesan priests who were removed from ministry, were retired, or left ministry after allegations of sexual abuse of a minor' because the list only included deceased priests with 2 or more allegations. Schuster was granted a leave of absence in 1991; it is not known whether he was ever laicized. He died on 7/23/07. Buffalo, NY Source:

 Francis Michael 1961 P Accused Paulist The Baltimore archdiocese announced in 12/93 that it had removed Sweeney from the chaplaincy of Charlestown Retirement Community in Catonsville because of 'inappropriate sexual contact with minors'. The Community was informed on 12/5/93. Cardinal Keeler's 9/25/02 list stated that in 1993 Sweeney had 'disclosed that he had sexually abused two individuals during the late 1970s and early 1980s'. Keeler provides a partial assignment history for Sweeney, failing to include his position as adjunct faculty 1986-1994 at St. Mary Seminary, where Keeler was Chancellor. Sweeney was sent for evaluation and treatment in 1993, then transferred to Boston, where the Directory lists him as working at the Paulist Center faith community 1997-2002. In the 2003-2004 Directories, after Keeler released his list, Sweeney's name is adjusted from Francis M to Frank M, and he is listed as residing at the Paulist Generalate in the NY archdiocese.
