Allegation: In Diocese of Madison
By Bill Brophy
FOR THE CATHOLIC HERALD
LODI -- Fr. Kenneth Klubertanz, pastor at St. Patrick Parish in Lodi, has been put on administrative leave following the allegations of an inappropriate incident with a minor 27 years ago, Bishop William H. Bullock announced in a statement read at weekend Masses in Lodi.
He also appointed Fr. Michael Richel, pastor at St. Albert the Great Parish in Sun Prairie, as the administrator of the parish in Lodi.
Klubertanz has denied the allegations.
Bullock said he was following the Diocese of Madison's policy on sexual abuse of minors by a priest in putting Klubertanz on leave, pending an investigation by the diocese. The man who made the allegation has asked not to be identified and thus the diocese has not turned his name over to civil authorities. He was 13 years old when the alleged incident occurred.
