A local priest is accused of terrorizing his wife after he claims he discovered she was having an affair.
Reverend Luke Reese, 49, worked out of the Holy Rosary Catholic Church on Indianapolis’ south side. He was forced to step away from the pulpit on Sept. 27 after he disclosed that he was facing multiple domestic violence accusations against his wife.
Reese is an ordained Anglican priest which means that unlike Catholic priests, he is allowed to be married.
According to the probable cause affidavit, Reese said he discovered that his wife of 25 years was having an affair on Sept. 24.
Reese found his wife and another man in a car together. He demanded the man get out of the car, and when he did not, Reese opened the door and kicked the man in the face, according to the court documents. She got out of the car and into her own, then drove to a park as instructed by Reese, so they could talk.
