A man complained in 1/2003 and again in 7/2004 that Stevens fondled and groped him on one occasion in 1969 or 1970 after a ski trip.

Stevens took a leave of absence 1/1987 for health reasons and later chose not to return to ministry. Per the diocese’s list 7/31/2019, Stevens’ canonical case was still in process.

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.
