  Archdiocese News Release: Specifics Of The Cases

The Archdiocese of Cincinnati
March 9, 2005

The following is taken verbatim from the news release issued by the Archdiocese of Cincinnati March 9, 2005:

� Stanley Doerger, pastor of St. Bernard Church in Taylor's Creek (Cincinnati): In September 2003, a woman alleged that she was sexually abused in the 1970s at St. Rita School for the Deaf while she was a student there. The accusations were investigated by an outside investigator hired by the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. The outside investigation found that persons close to the complainant disagreed with many of the facts and assertions included in the allegation. As previously reported in the media, since 2003 a group of former students at St. Rita School for the Deaf have demanded that Doerger be removed because of allegations that he physically, sexually and verbally abused over 275 female students at St. Rita School for the Deaf. Names of such students and details of the allegations have never been provided to the Archdiocese.
