A former priest who served at Catholic churches in Genesee County is facing a new count of first-degree criminal sexual conduct.
The Michigan Attorney General’s Office already charged 80-year-old Vincent DeLorenzo with three counts of first-degree and three counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct. A fourth count of first-degree CSC was announced on Tuesday.
Attorney General Dana Nessel said the new charge stems from inappropriate sexual contact DeLorenzo allegedly had with a 5-year-old boy after a funeral for the boy’s relative in 1987.
