SAGINAW, MI — The Catholic Diocese of Saginaw has added the names of eight religious-order clergy to its website naming those who, according to the church, have at least one credible allegation of child sexual abuse against them.

Church officials could not be reached immediately for comment. But the Saginaw Diocese website now includes the names of several members of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin and one member of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary. Six of the eight people named are deceased.

The website states seven of them served in the Saginaw Diocese.

Those named include:

Benedict Adams, deceased.

Baldwin Beyer, deceased.

Art Cooney

James LaReau, deceased

John Steven Rabideau, deceased. The diocese notes he did not serve as a member of the clergy in the Diocese of Saginaw, but was prosecuted here.

Austin Schlaefer, deceased

Ken Stewart - claim made in Saginaw Diocese

Elmer Stoffel, deceased

“In determining allegations to be credible, the Diocese of Saginaw is not making a definitive statement regarding the certainty of the allegations nor the guilt of the accused. The Diocese is only stating that the allegations are highly serious and have not been discredited,” the Diocese website states.

The new names brings the total number of clergy associated with the diocese and accused of sexual misconduct to 30. The names of the other clergy can be found here.

Victims of clergy abuse are urged to call the Michigan Attorney General’s investigation hotline at 844-324-3374.

Note: This story was updated to reflect new information from the diocese, including that Rabideau is deceased. There is one case involving a claim made in the Saginaw Diocese against Ken Stewart, the church said.
