Bishop Donald Kettler of the Diocese of Saint Cloud will hold a
series of listening sessions in August following allegations of sexual
abuse committed by three priests of the diocese. The Diocese of St.
Cloud was recently notified of four civil lawsuits alleging abuse by
Father Robert Smith, Father William Wey and Father James Thoennes. The
suits name the Diocese of St. Cloud as a defendant.
Smith and Wey have been deceased for more than 25 years. Thoennes does not have faculties to serve publicly as a priest and currently lives in St. Cloud under restrictions.
