An Irish Catholic priest has been singled out for praise in a letter sent to the Vatican by US police officers who investigated a clerical child abuse case, while criticising the diocese in which the priest served.
Last week, Fr John Gallagher
(48), from Strabane, Co Tyrone, who has been ministering in Florida
since 2000, claimed he has been ostracised by church authorities there
for reporting the conduct of another priest in January 2015.
