Man sues Des Moines Diocese over alleged abuse by priest

Des Moines, Iowa --

A man has sued the Roman Catholic Diocese of Des Moines over allegations of sexual abuse by a priest while the man was a student at Dowling Catholic High School in the 1960s.
The lawsuit also names the Reverend Leonard Kenkel, who now serves parishes in Afton and Creston.

A spokeswoman for the diocese, Anne Marie Cox, says a committee reviewed the complaint, but didn't find sufficient evidence to confirm abuse.

The man's attorney, Mary McGee, says the diocese has not released the results of its investigation to her client, and the investigation was not what it should have been.
