LINK Catholic priest found guilty of child abuse banned from priesthood | TheHill

The Archdiocese of Boston announced Friday that a Catholic priest, who was found guilty of sexually abusing a minor by a church panel, has been banned from participating as an active member of the priesthood.

Paul McLaughlin, who served as a pastor for two different Massachusetts parishes from the 1970s until he was placed on administrative leave in 2001, has been “assigned to a life of prayer and penance,” according to the archdiocese website.
