The Catholic Diocese of Wilmington has asked the Vatican to defrock a former Delaware priest who is charged with sexually abusing a Syracuse boy. The Diocese made the request a week ago - just one day after 77 year old Francis DeLuca was charged with endangering the welfare of a child and several counts of sexual abuse. DeLuca was removed from public ministry and forced to retire in 1993, when allegations of sexual abuse arose while he was a priest in Delaware.
