Utah’s Catholic diocese has received “credible allegations" of sexual abuse of minors or vulnerable adults against two former Jesuit priests who once served in the Beehive State.
Their names were on a list released by the Jesuits West Province and on a similar anticipated list by the Jesuits Midwest Province.
Both alleged incidents occurred in the 1980s, according to a release from Jean Hill, spokeswoman for the Diocese of Salt Lake City, and both priests are long gone from Utah.
Actions by the Rev. Raymond Devlin, who appears on the Jesuit West list, were reported in 1990, the release said, and he was removed from his priesthood ministry at that time.
