Two more former altar boys have surfaced with allegations of clergy sex abuse. Michael Chargualaf and Anthony Ray C. Mantanona both allege they were sexually molested multiple times by Father Louis Brouillard who was a priest at San Isidro Church in Malojoloj.
They mark the 27th and 28th plaintiffs to file suit.
It was the mid-1970s. Mantanona was only 8 or 9 years old. Chargualaf was a little older, around 13. Both were altar boys at San Isidro Church in Malojojo. Both were forced to quit after multiple incidents of sex abuse by parish priest, Father Louis Brouillard.
Mantanona and Chargualaf filed their civil suits with the Superior Court of Guam late Thursday afternoon. Both men are represented by Attorney Anthony C. Perez.
Court filings provide graphic details to what happened behind closed doors on church grounds. For Chargualaf, the abuse started on his first day. He had arrived early for mass to meet Brouillard who walked around the rectory with an open robe, his naked body underneath. As a teen he was forced to perform oral sex and receive oral sex from the priest who would tell him “Don’t be afraid. This is OK.” and “Doesn’t that feel good?”
