The following is a brief of the story. For the full version, see the Wednesday, Sept. 30 print edition of the BDN.
The ex-Ss. Peter and Paul priest who a former Boonville resident claims sexually assaulted him repeatedly once worked as a counselor in Columbia, the national director of an anti-abuse group claimed today.
David Clohessy, of The Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, claimed today that Gerald Howard worked as a counselor to troubled teenagers at the now-closed Charter Hospital in Columbia.
