Who Is Reverend Michael Pfleger? Chicago Priest Accused of Sexual Abuse
On 1/26/21 at 11:54 AM EST
Reverend Michael Pfleger made headlines earlier this year when he was removed from his Chicago ministry over allegations of child sexual abuse said to have gone back decades.
The influential Roman Catholic priest, 71, stepped down from his parish in the South Side of the city on January 5, as authorities launched an investigation into claims that Pfleger abused a pre-teen boy in the 1970s. Now, another man has also come forward.
Pfleger vehemently denies the allegations.
Born in May of 1949, Pfleger was ordained as a priest for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago on May 14, 1975.
