The father of the 26-year-old man who says he was sexually molested by a locally known Roman Catholic priest says he noticed his son’s behaviour changing during his last year of high school.

The Kingston Whig-Standard reports the father testified yesterday.

Reverend Rene Labelle is being tried in a Kingston courtroom.

He served as priest at a church in Read, north of Shannonville, in the 1980s and 1990s.

Labelle resigned his post in 2012 as chaplin of Holy Cross Secondary School in Kingston.

The charges relate to an alleged incident which occurred in a rectory on Wolfe Island.
