The Diocese of Greensburg says they’ve received a credible allegation of sexual abuse of a minor against Monsignor Michael W. Matusak dating back almost 20 years.

In a statement released Wednesday morning, the diocese says Matusak was removed from his place of ministry and relieved of all parish duties within 24 hours of the allegation being made. He will remain on leave until the investigation is complete.

The diocese also says they phoned the allegation into the PA ChildLine and the appropriate district attorney.

The diocese says this is the first and only allegation it has received against Matusak.

The diocese says it will be communicating this weekend with parishioners at the four parishes in Uniontown where he serves as pastor. The parishes are St. John the Evangelist, St. Joseph, St. Mary (Nativity) and St. Therese, Little Flower of Jesus.

This news comes in the wake of the grand jury report that came out last week looking at child sex abuse in six Pennsylvania dioceses including Greensburg.

Like Democrats, they appear to ALL be guilty.

Popie Frankie is the worst of all.
