NM - Notorious Michigan predator priest is now in NM

For immediate release: Tuesday, January 14, 2014

Statement by Barbara Dorris, SNAP Outreach Director, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (314-503-0003 [email protected])


We are upset that a former priest who was serving jail for molesting Michigan kids is now living in Albuquerque New Mexico.

He is Jason E. Sigler, who pleaded guilty to two counts of third-degree criminal sexual assault in 2003.

We urge Santa Fe Archbishop is Michael Jarboe Sheehan to warn his flock about Sigler.

We also encourage individuals in the Michigan area who may have seen, suspected, or suffered abuse by Sigler to call police, expose wrongdoers, protect kids, deter cover ups and start healing.

    Jason Sigler lived in the rectory and helped out at my old parish of St. John’s in Jackson. Michigan for a short time in 1968 or 1969. In early 1970 he was sent to the Paraclete place in New Mexico with the promise that he would never come back to the Lansing, Michigan Diocese. His name is not listed in the history of St. John’s in the 125th anniversary book.
