Diocese reports misconduct allegations

Tucson, Arizona --

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Tucson reported allegations of sexual misconduct by six church workers in the annual audit of the nation's dioceses.

The 2004 report to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops included credible accusations against five priests and one deacon. None of the alleged actions took place last year, said diocese spokesman Fred Allison.

Three of the priests are dead, and two have been named in lawsuits. The deacon listed in the report is also deceased.

The names were disclosed on the diocese's Web site in February, June and December as part of an effort to ensure the diocese is in compliance with abuse reporting requirements.
