Given name Patricia Kulwicki. Kulwicki was a Felician nun for eight years before leaving the order in 1973. She was accused publicly in 2019 by a 57-year-old woman who said Kulwicki sexually abused her for ten years, beginning when she was age 14. The woman was a student of Kulwicki’s at Our Lady of Mercy High School in Farmington Hills, MI. She said she and her family reported the abuse to the archdiocese in the late 1980s, and that Kulwicki denied it. She was allowed to continue teaching at the school until her death in 1994.

Our Database of Publicly Accused does not state or imply that individuals facing allegations are guilty of a crime or liable for civil claims. The reports contained in the database are merely allegations. The U.S. legal system presumes that a person accused of or charged with a crime is innocent until proven guilty. Similarly, individuals who may be defendants in civil actions are presumed not to be liable for such claims unless a plaintiff proves otherwise. Admissions of guilt or liability are not typically a part of civil or private settlements. For more information, see our posting policy.
