DEDHAM -- Saying he was only attempting to "satisfy his manhood," Patrick McSorley, an outspoken accuser in the clergy sex abuse scandal who days before awoke from a coma, was arrested with a female acquaintance Monday night at an Elm Street motel on drug charges.
McSorley, 29, of 43 Woodglen Road, Hyde Park, was charged with possession of a Class B substance, fentanyl, possession of marijuana and possession of a hypodermic needle.
"I'm out trying to satisfy my manhood thirst and look what happens to me," said McSorley, a father of two children.
His plans for a sex-filled hotel rendezvous with an old girlfriend, McSorley said, were botched by the arrest. "All I did was pay for a hotel room that I never even got to use."
