GREEN BAY – A family is outraged, after learning the priest who molested their young boy will be released from prison early.
Donald Buzanowski was granted early release by a Brown County judge Friday afternoon, and could be out of prison as early as next week. He was sentenced to 32 years in prison in 2005 for molesting a student at Saints Peter and Paul School in Green Bay.
It’s been more than 20 years since David Schauer went to Green Bay Police, telling them he had been sexually abused by Buzanowski. He says he was shocked to learn that after serving only seven years in prison, Buzanowski has been granted early release.
“It was very frustrating to hear that, after all of the difficult work and the difficult time I had in testifying.. but looking back at it, I would still do it all over again,” said Schauer.
