Fr. Eugene Braun
Accused in 2005 of abuse of at least 2-3 girls in the mid-1960s at Little Flower Church. He denied all allegations. One of the girls told her mother who alerted another priest. This priest promised that Braun would be “put in a mental hospital.” Instead, he left the priesthood “on his own” in about 1975. One of the women settled her claim prior to 8/2007. Included on the Reno diocese’s list 4/5/2019, which notes he was removed from ministry in 1974. On the Las Vegas diocese’s list 4/12/2019.

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.
