LAS CRUCES - Las Cruces Bishop Oscar Cantú on Wednesday disputed allegations that the diocese conspired to cover up an investigation involving a Hobbs priest who has been charged with sexually assaulting a man. The bishop also maintained that diocesan officials did not receive complaints from Las Cruces parishioners over an eight-year period when the accused priest was at St. Genevieve Catholic Church.
Cantú spoke candidly about what he did — and didn't do — when he learned about sexual abuse allegations involving Father Ricardo Bauza last year.
