A newly filed lawsuit alleges that Kevin Gugliotta, a priest in the Newark Archdiocese, sexually abused a boy at a Union County parish in 2006, a few years after church officials decided he could not be punished for alleged abuse from decades earlier when he was a Boy Scout leader.
Newark Archdiocese officials have said they had no authority to punish Gugliotta after first hearing about allegations against him in 2003 because he was not yet a priest at the time of the alleged abuse, which had occurred in the 1980s.
After those 2003 allegations, Gugliotta worked another 13 years as a priest and oversaw youth ministry at one parish, according to court documents until archdiocesan officials removed him from ministry after his 2016 arrest on child pornography charges in Pennsylvania, where he now lives and is listed on the state s sex offender registry.

It was the worst of scenarios for the mother of three young children.
She was being evicted from her home and was on the verge of homelessness. She had lived in a shelter before with her children, and she didn’t want to go back.
The woman was crying and upset as she was explaining her dire situation in January 2018 to Joseph Centanni, a powerful landlord in Elizabeth who owns hundreds of rental units. She later recounted the alleged story to police.
Centanni, of Mountainside, told her he could help her out. He agreed to rent the woman an apartment but told her she would have to return a “favor” at a later date, she said.
