Former priest John Feeney, who was sentenced to a 15-year prison sentence in 2004, has been officially dismissed from the clerical state, according to Bishop David Zubik of the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay.
Zubik announced Monday that he had received official word from the Vatican. The decision is in response to a request filed in 2004 by Zubik.
In April 2004, Feeney received a 15-year prison sentence in Outagamie County Court for sexual assault of a child in the late 1970s.
