EDMONTON - An Edmonton area man, who claims a Catholic priest sexually assaulted him and said his parents "would die and go to hell" if he told them about it, is suing for $475,000.

According to a statement of claim filed Feb. 22, the middle-aged man alleges the priest, who is now dead, sexually assaulted him in the early 1970s when he was about 10 years old and the priest was a teacher at St. Mary's Boys School in Edmonton.

The man alleges he would often go over to the school to play or for recreational purposes and claims the priest took him to a dormitory in a back area after asking him to help carry some things to the gym.

He alleges the priest picked him up and tossed him onto a dorm bed and sexually assaulted him.
