Minnesota Church Hires Catholic Priest Linked To Sex Abuse
A Catholic priest who had been forced to resign after clergy in his church were charged with sex abuse, has been appointed assistant priest at a church in Minnesota. The then Archbishop of St. Paul and Minneapolis resigned from his position, amid the clergy sex abuse scandal last year. Press TV reports: Saint Philip Roman Catholic church in Kalamazoo announced this week that it had appointed John Nienstedt, the former archbishop of St Paul and Minneapolis, to assist the parish while its head pastor dealt with medical issues.
