Civil cases will proceed despite Brother Stephen Baker’s suicide.
Attorney Michael Parrish Junior of Johnstown, representing some of the former students alleging abuse by Baker, said the cases will move forward.
Baker was found dead at the St. Bernardine Monastery in Hollidaysburg on Saturday. He had been named in legal settlements involving abuse allegations at JFK High School in Warren and allegations have also surfaced of abuse at Bishop McCort High School in Johnstown in the 1990s.
