	Priest Charged with Sexual Abuse Wants Monitor Removed By Amy Sherman Miami Herald [Florida] September 6, 2006 http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/local/states/florida/counties/ broward_county/15451326.htm Broward Circuit judge Susan Lebow could decide this morning whether to allow a retired priest accused of sexual abuse to remove the ankle bracelet used to monitor his whereabouts. The Rev. Neil Doherty has also requested permission to move from Lantana to Lake Worth. Doherty, a former priest at St. Vincent Catholic Church in Margate, has been charged with sexually abusing a boy -- starting when the boy was 10 years old -- beginning in the 1990s. If convicted, he could face life in prison. He denies the allegations. Several other alleged victims have filed civil suits against the Archdiocese of Miami accusing Doherty of abuse. Doherty, 64, is free on bond. asherman@MiamiHerald.com
