A taskforce has been formed to investigate allegations of abuse involving the Catholic Diocese of Saginaw.
Saginaw County Prosecutor John McColgan Jr. announced on Thursday, March 8, the formation of a taskforce after officials charged the Rev. Robert DeLand Jr. with one count of attempted second-degree criminal sexual conduct/personal injury, one count of second-degree criminal sexual conduct and a count of gross indecency between male persons — all felonies.
The investigation of DeLand, 71, known as Father Bob, stems from an investigation by the Saginaw Township and Tittabawassee Township police departments.
