Nine claim abuse but no prosecutions follow
The complainant, given the pseudonym Caelan, made a complaint in 1997, saying she was abused by Fr Ronat between 1979 and 1981 at a residential retreat.
She said the priest conducted confessions in a bedroom and that she was instructed to lie on the bed. He then touched her and made reference to “the heat of the Holy Spirit” descending upon her.
