GUILFORD, CT — A former altar boy at St. George’s Church claims in a lawsuit that former parish priest, Daniel McSheffery, sexually abused him more than 250 times during a five-year period from 1977 until 1982, reports the Hartford Courant’s David Altimari.
McSheffery died in 2014 and he had been involved in eight other lawsuits and the Archdiocese of Hartford, which is the lone defendant in this case, had previously settled claims against McSheffery and three other priests totaling $22 million back in 2005, the Courant reports.
