Ottawa police have laid more criminal charges against a former Ottawa priest who was already facing allegations of sexual abuse involving a minor.
Police said Friday they have laid four new charges against William Barry McGrory, 83, in relation to two new male complainants. The incidents happened in the 1960s at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church and St. Philips Church in Richmond, according to police.
McGrory was charged with two counts each of indecent assault and gross indecency, which were Criminal Code offences in place at the time.
Last November, Ottawa police laid four historical sex offences against the former priest after a man came forward with an allegation he was sexually assaulted when he was 15. At the time, McGrory was living in Toronto, but police said he used to be a priest with the Archdiocese of Ottawa.
