Catholic Archdiocese of Denver
Tuesday, April 13, 2010 (241 reads)
The Catholic Archdiocese of Denver contacted the Denver Police Department at the end of last week (April 5-9, 2010), to promptly report an allegation of sexual assault regarding one of their clergy and one juvenile in the 1970s. Because the date of the allegation falls outside the statute of limitations, no enforcement action or investigation was initiated.
The Catholic Archdiocese of Denver has and is continuing to fully cooperate with the Denver Police Department regarding this matter. As in this case, the Denver Police Department encourages any person or entity with information regarding an alleged crime to immediately report that information to the police.
