2d priest defrocked for abuse in N.H. - The Boston Globe
MANCHESTER, N.H. --
Pope Benedict XVI has defrocked a second New Hampshire priest accused of sexual abuse.
The announcement that Paul Aube has been stripped of his priesthood came Friday from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Manchester, which said the Pope made the decision on May 20.
This means Aube can neither act as a priest nor receive financial support from the church. Aube is only the second New Hampshire priest to be defrocked since the state began investigating clergy sexual abuse in 2002. Ronald Corriveau was defrocked by the late Pope John Paul II in March.
Aube was ordained in 1970 and worked at parishes in Claremont, Berlin, Nashua, and Rochester. According to a 2003 report by the state attorney general's office, two Nashua police detectives reported in 1975 that they found Aube parked on a secluded road with an 18-year-old boy; the two were fondling, the report said.
Former Bishop Odore Gendron later transferred Aube from Nashua to a youth ministry position at a Rochester church.
Aube acknowledged in a 2003 interview that he molested several boys in their late teens between 1971 and 1980 while assigned to these churches. He said he confessed the abuse to his superiors and asked for counseling and to be assigned to duties that would keep him away from children.
