Sugar Grove man alleges sex abuse, sues ex-priest
A Sugar Grove man who claims he was sexually abused in 1982 by a former priest has filed a civil suit against him and the Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee.
The lawsuit, filed Monday by Charles Linneman, 36, alleges that Franklyn Becker, who was defrocked in December, sexually molested him in 1982.
Linneman reportedly met Becker, 67, while attending St. Joseph Catholic Church in Lyons, Wis., in 1980. According to Linneman's attorney, Jeff Anderson, Becker was transferred out of the Lyons church that same year, but the priest invited Linneman to visit him at his new Milwaukee parish, where the sexual molestation allegedly took place.
