Three men who say they were sexually abused by a former priest when they were youths have joined two others in suing the Archdiocese of Denver.

Brandon Trask, now 49 and living in California, and another 49-year- old man identified as "John Doe" filed separate lawsuits in Denver District Court on Tuesday, alleging they were molested by the priest, Harold Robert White.

Another new suit alleges that White abused Greg Roberts of Fort Collins beginning in the late 1960s while Roberts was an altar boy at a Catholic church in Sterling, according to a draft of the suit provided by a Miami-based law firm specializing in sexual abuse cases.

Lawyers for Trask and Roberts released their names in news releases.
