Priest Aimed GUN At Teen During Sexual Abuse, Victim Says... Rev. Michael Freeman Liked His GUNS.....
Buffalo priest aimed gun at teen during sexual abuse, victim says The late Rev. Michael Freeman would jokingly brandish a silver .38-caliber revolver to get him to comply with the abuse, the victim says.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — A 49-year-old man says a Roman Catholic priest pointed a gun at him while sexually abusing him as a teenager.
The accuser's attorney, Steve Boyd, says the abuse occurred after the Diocese of Buffalo received a complaint about the priest from another alleged victim in 1980.
The allegations against the late Rev. Michael Freeman were first reported by The Buffalo News. The man has filed a claim with the Buffalo diocese victims' compensation fund. He says Freeman would jokingly brandish a silver .38-caliber revolver to get him to comply with the abuse.
Freeman died in 2010. A diocesan spokeswoman didn't respond to a request for comment Monday.
Freeman's name is included in a list of priests accused of sexually abusing children released by the diocese in March. Source
