PITTSBURGH – A grand jury has been meeting behind closed doors about sexual abuse allegations in the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh.
Jurors heard testimony on Tuesday during the secret proceedings about cases that could date back 70 years.
Target 11’s Rick Earle learned one man who testified claims that he was abused by a priest and nun. Earle previously spoke with Johnny Hewko about the allegations.
Hewko said he was abused over a nearly three-year span of time.
“I’d have to say, on average, maybe once a week would be around right,” he told Earle in February.
