Two Clergy Sexual Abuse Cases Filed In Florida

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
The Orlando (FL) Sentinel reports that a new clergy abuse lawsuit was filed yesterday in Orange County, Florida against the Catholic Diocese of Orlando and the Diocese of Gary, Indiana. It accuses former priest Richard Emerson, who was on temporary assignment from Indiana, of abusing the plaintiff in the late 1980's and early 1990's. A second lawsuit was filed in Orange County earlier this month involving allegations against former priest Vernon H. Uhran by an Orlando man who claimed that in 1970, when plaintiff was a 14-year old altar boy, Uhran repeatedly sexually abused him after plying him with alcohol during a spiritual retreat to a beach.
