abuse

Bishop Christopher Coyne, who leads the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington, last week released the names of 40 priests who “had credible allegations of sexual abuse filed against them by victims who were under the age of 18 at the time of the incident.” Included in that list was Monsignor Edward J. Gelineau, who served as the pastor at Our Lady of Mount Carmel on Spear Street in Charlotte from 1976 to 1990.
