	Church Officials Investigate Sex Abuse Allegations Capitol News 9 January 19, 2008 http://www.capitalnews9.com/content/top_stories/default.asp?ArID=229911 TROY, N.Y. -- A priest in Troy has taken a leave of absence while church officials investigate allegations that he sexually abused a minor. At his request, the Albany Diocese granted Reverend Gary Mercure a leave of absence. Mercure is the pastor of Sacred Heart and St. William Parishes in Troy. The allegations date back to the mid-1980's, when Father Mercure was an associate pastor at a Church in Queensbury. Once the investigation is complete, the Diocese's Sexual Misconduct Review Board will make a recommendation on what, if any, action should be taken.
