The Roman Catholic Diocese of Bridgeport said Friday that three priests have resigned because of allegations of sexual abuse 20 years ago.
A single person wrote the diocese and claimed he was abused separately by the three priests between 1979 and 1983, when he was between the ages of 15 and 19, Bishop William Lori said in a statement.
Lori serves on a national panel of bishops that has drawn up new church policies to deal with abuse and allegations of abuse.
