From Delaware online, Link #2:

John F. Dougherty Jr., 61, who lives in Las Vegas, Nev., said the Rev. Edward B. Carley raped him when he was 10 years old, serving as an altar boy at St. Ann's Church in Wilmington. Carley served as assistant pastor there from 1954 to 1962. Dougherty said he was in contact with Carley for more than 10 years and was abused repeatedly by him.

The articles are about many more issues than just gay priests, and there are many more subject priests in the referenced stories than the two you mentioned.

Not sure I understand your point. Or are you holding out that all or a majority of the problems highlighted in the articles above are because of priests who were ordained in the 50s?
