Inside Ottawa Valley

A Catholic priest well-known in the Arnprior area was found not guilty in Pembroke court on Dec. 3 on two sexual assault charges.
Father Dan Miller, who was last year found guilty of molesting five boys in Renfrew
County about 40 years ago, was charged with indecent assault and gross indecency. The alleged assaults took place in the Deep River area in the 1970s.
He had served nine months in the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre last year after pleading guilty to the first set of charges, but maintained his innocence in the latest case.
According to Arnpriortoday.ca, Justice Martin said the victim’s testimony was credible but not reliable.
