Fr. Carl Stone
Named publicly in Canada 7/30/08 as accused. On 7/31/08 the Albany diocese acknowledged, in response to pressure from SNAP, that it had removed Stone from ministry in 1981 after he pled guilty to sodomizing two teenage brothers in Colonie, NY. He had worked in the Albany diocese for about 11 years. Prior to Albany, Stone worked in the Diocese of Ogdensburg, where he was also accused. After his 1981 conviction, and while on probation, Bishop LaRocque of Alexandria-Cornwall, Ontario, Canada hired Stone. LaRocque had full knowledge of Stone’s history of abuse. After new allegations in 1985, Larocque terminated him. Stone died in 11/06.

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.
