St. Louis (KSDK) – We have new information tonight involving allegations of sex abuse dating back to the 1970s at Chaminade College Preparatory.

The head of the Marianists says the same graduate who came to him a few months ago, had reached out in years past, and he says there were other accusations of abuse by others against the two former teachers in question.

Father Martin Solma says the complaints came in about these men at least eight or nine years ago. While he says they may not have been handled correctly then, the father, who’s been at the helm for less than two years, says he’ll do the right thing now.
