Fr. Bruce Forman
A 14-year-old boy wrote to the Archdiocese in 1983 complaining of assault on several occasions by Forman, and said “I know it’s happened before.” The priest allegedly gave the boy pornography and beer. No response from Archdiocese. The boy said he gave another priest a list of 10-15 names of boys who said they believed that Forman had been inappropriate with them. In 1995 the same person sued the archdiocese; it was dismissed on statute problems. Forman remained an active priest in 1/16. Founder and director in the archdiocese of Young Catholic Musicians.

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.
