Former Bishop’s Name Also Removed From Diocese Facility
A priest in the Greensburg Catholic Diocese has been removed after a credible allegation of sexual abuse of minor was received.
According to a statement from the diocese, the allegation was made against Fr. Joseph Bonafed and dates back 28 years.
“My understanding is the Attorney General’s hotline received this report in April,” said Bishop Edward Malesic, of the Greensburg Catholic Diocese. “We received the report earlier this week from a person related to the survivor, and we took action immediately.”
