MIAMI -- A Miami law firm is filing two lawsuits in Colorado, accusing the Diocese of Pueblo in connection with the sexual abuse of Roncalli High School students.
The suits also name the Marianist Province of the United States, following alleged abuse on the part of Brother William Mueller.
Mueller is described as a member of the Society of Mary Religious Order.
He's accused of abusing a Roncalli sophomore in 1968, and a junior in 1969 -- both as they slept. The suit says Mueller was later transferred to a high school in St. Louis, where he abused other boys.
He was reportedly sent to a New Mexico treatment center for pedophile priests in the mid-1980s.
