R.I. bishop linked to abuse allegations
A lawsuit has been filed accusing the late Bishop Louis E. Gelineau of sexually abusing an altar boy in the 1980s at St. Luke’s Church in Barrington. The plaintiff, now 56, alleges that Gelineau, along with two other priests, engaged in ongoing abuse, with one priest previously credibly accused of molestation. The lawsuit claims Gelineau led a cover-up of abuse within the diocese, which for decades concealed incidents and maintained strict confidentiality policies. This is the first public accusation linking Gelineau to sexual abuse, amidst a wave of lawsuits against the Diocese of Providence.
