Graphic detail was released during the first day of trial against a former Tyendinaga Township Catholic priest.

According to the Whig Standard, the victim turned to drugs, developed an eating disorder, and became suicidal following the alleged incident in 2003 or 2004.

The assault is said to have taken place on Wolfe Island, where Reverend Rene Labelle is accused of sexually assaulting the unnamed victim.

Labelle spent time at Saint Charles Borromeo in Read in the late 80s and early 90s.

Day two of the trial continues today at the Frontenac County Court House.

Nothing has been proven in court.
