DUBUQUE, Iowa A Hudson man who says he was sexually abused by a nun has asked the Archdiocese of Dubuque to reopen his case.
The archdiocese had previously ruled that Steve Theisen's claims that he was fondled as a child could not be substantiated.
Theisen called a press conference this week and said he wants church officials to do a "proper investigation."
Theisen has accused a Franciscan sister of abusing him in the early 1960s at Sacred Heart Catholic School in Dubuque. Theisen says the sister kept him after school and kissed and fondled him.
