Press Release
FT. LAUDERDALE MEDIA ADVISORY FOR JANUARY 28 Priest Arrested for Raping a Young Boy
Attorney To Give Documents Proving Earlier Allegations Against Cleric
What:
When:
Where:
Who:
Why:
The Archdiocese of Miami received multiple credible allegations of sexual abuse by Father Neil Doherty dating back to the 1970's. In 1992, the Archdiocese confidentially settled a case in which Father Doherty was accused of molesting a minor. Nevertheless, Father Doherty was still the pastor at St. Vincent in Margate in 1995-96 when he met the victim.
Documents showing the Archdiocese's knowledge of allegations of abuse against Father Doherty dating back to the 1970's will be distributed at the press conference.
A copy of the lawsuit is available at www.hermanlaw.com or upon request.
