Man Alleges Abuse Against Former Dowling Teacher
A Des Moines man is suing a former Dowling High School teacher, claiming sexual abuse when he was 15 years old.
The lawsuit claims the teacher, the Rev. Leonard Kenkel, engaged in improper, illegal and immoral sexual contact. Some of the details of the suit are graphic.
Kenkel is accused of showing his penis and fondling the boy's buttocks, NewsChannel 8 reports.
