Helotes, Texas – The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) is asking why a priest at a local church has not come forward after being accused of sending sexually inappropriate texts.

According to a letter from San Antonio Archbishop Gustavo Garcia Siller, Monsignor Carlos Davalos was removed as pastor of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in Helotes.

The letter went out April 30, but others wonder where he is now.

“The church did the right thing by removing him,” Patti Koo, SNAP San Antonio Volunteer Chapter Leader, said. “However, they could go a step further and let us know where he’s at. Is he somewhere in San Antonio near a school, near public places where children might be? So, that’s our concern.”

Archbishop Garcia Siller says there have been no other allegations of misconduct against Davalos.
