A Former Lakeville priest is on the list of priests credibly accused of “engaging in sexual abuse of minors,” according to the archdiocese’s newspaper.

The Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis published the list of 34 priests Thursday in the online edition of The Catholic Spirit, the newspaper that serves the archdiocese.

About half of the parishes in the archdiocese—92 out of 188 parishes—had one of the priests on the list there at some point, according to the archdiocese.

Timothy McCarthy served as associate priest at All Saints Catholic Church in Lakeville from 1974-77. He was permanently removed from ministry in 1991. McCarthy, 67, is believed to be currently living in Oakdale or St. Paul.
