The assignment record project.

BishopAccountability.org has launched a project to gather and post the assignment records of every U.S. Catholic priest who has been accused of sexual abuse since 1940, so that vulnerable communities can be identified and bishops' transfer policies can be determined.

See below for a brief  description  of assignment records and their importance, easy  ways that you can help  with this project, and our initial  list of assignment records . For a more detailed account of assignment record research and how you can volunteer, see our  guide .

Assignment Records: Why They Are Important An assignment record lists all the diocesan and parish appointments of a priest, including telltale periods of sick leave. A detailed assignment record, like this  assignment record of John Geoghan  created by the Boston Globe, identifies populations that have been placed at risk, and is also cross-referenced with a list of accusations, so that the transfer policies of the priest's bishops can be evaluated. By identifying a priests' seminary class and the colleagues with whom he has worked, an assigment record can also begin to identify the circle of colleagues who kept the priest's activities secret and who might even have been involved in the abuse themselves. Assignment records are all around us: *  Newspaper accounts  of the crisis *  Diocesan records *  Investigative files *  Obituaries  and other old newspaper reports But these records are dispersed and difficult to find, and complete assignment records for most accused priests are not publicly available. We urge the U.S. bishops to publish detailed assignment records with treatment episodes and accusation dates for every abuser. In the meantime, we are undertaking this work of research and collection ourselves. See our  initial collection of assignment records  below. Volunteering for the Assignment Record Project Please  send  us any assignment records that know about or come across: * In your daily newspaper reading * In your personal experience, if you are a survivor of abuse * In the research that you've done, if you are a lawyer or a reporter working in this area If you would like to join the Service Record Project as a volunteer -- for a few hours, or a few hours per week, or anything in between -- please read our  guide  to service record research, and  email  us to let us know you're interested. This is work that you can do at a local Catholic college library or at most central city libraries, and you can email, snail mail, or even phone us the results. List of Assignment Records The staff at BishopAccountability.org has begun to assemble a library of assignment records for accused priests and others who figure in the crisis.Some we have developed ourselves from the  Official Catholic Directory , diocesan documents, and investigative reports. Others were created by lawyers and investigative reporters. Others were created by the dioceses themselves and relinquished under subpoena, or were prepared by the dioceses in response to investigation by law enforcement.

Fr. Henry F. Angelino

Named publicly as credibly accused on the Fresno diocese's list in 2021. Ordained for the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno. Noted to have left the diocese in 1952.

He was pastor of Sacred Heart in Merced at the time. In 1977 a news piece shows that Angelino was appointed by the Orthodox Roman Catholic Movement to Our Lady of the Rosary Chapel in Walnut Creek CA. Angelino died in 1986.

Fr. Jules M. Arceneaux

Placed on leave in 7/2004 after the FBI seized a church computer holding possible child pornography. A boy said he had downloaded the images; the U.S. Attorney's office said the boy had not. It closed its investigation in 4/2005 without filing charges against priest, saying it did not have sufficient evidence to meet "prosecutable standard," i.e., it could not prove those in the pictures were minors. The Diocese then resumed its investigation; Arceneaux remained on leave.  He reportedly was leading the rosary at funerals in Lafayette in 2013. Included on diocese's list in 4/2019; remained on leave.

Pastor of St. Peter Claver in Treme LA when accused in a lawsuit filed in 1/2021 of rape and assault of a boy, age 10, during confession at a retreat in Montgomery AL in 2008. The boy was a parishioner of Blessed Trinity in New Orleans, where Asare-Dankwah was assigned. The alleged victim said the priest pulled him out of bed the morning after the sexual assault and repeatedly struck him, while praying and accusing the boy of being a homosexual. Suspended pending investigation. Asare-Dankwah was visiting family in Ghana when the suit was filed. He denied the allegations. Police were investigating. Asare-Dankwah countersued his accuser. He was reported to federal authorities after an archdiocesan audit completed in 8/2021 showed possible financial crimes committed during his time at St. Peter Claver. In 12/2022 the Asare-Dankwah and the man accusing him of the 2008 abuse agreed to drop their lawsuits against each other.

Fr. Joseph Farrell – Diocese of Trenton

On Behalf of Horowitz Law | Apr 26, 2021 | Abuser Profiles , Catholic Church

Father Joseph Farrell

Diocese of trenton.

Ordained: 1974

Leave of Absence: 2021

Assignment History:

• 1974: St. Joseph (Toms River, NJ)
• Unknown: St. Bonaventure  (Lavalette, NJ)
• 1983-1987: St. Mary of the Lakes (Medford, NJ)
• 1987-1989: St. Ann (Keansburg, NY)
• 1989-1995: Our Lady of Perpetual Help-St. Agnes (Atlantic Highlands, NJ)
• 1996: Holy Eucharist (Tabernacle, NJ)
• 1999 – 2021: St. Isidore the Farmer (New Egypt, NJ)

Summary of Sexual Abuse Allegations Against Father Joseph Farrell:

In April 2021, a civil lawsuit was filed against the Diocese of Trenton, alleging that Fr. Joseph Farrell sexually abused a minor in 1989 while working at Our Lady of Perpetual Help-St. Agnes Parish in Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey. The victim, now a 44-year-old-man, claims that Farrell groomed him for sexual abuse and then abused him on more than 50 occasions while he was a student at the now-closed St. Agnes Catholic School.

According to media reports , the victim states that Farrell would massage his shoulders after basketball games and offered to write letters of recommendation so he could get into a good high school. Farrell served as Pastor at the time of these alleged incidents. The Pastor allegedly rubbed the D.A.’s genitals when he was assigned to bring paperwork to the rectory and on at least one occasion performed oral sex on the boy, who was then 13 or 14 years old, according to the civil complaint.

The lawsuit then documents a series of incidents that Farrell allegedly groped him, performed oral sex on him, masturbated in front of him, and then raped him. Farrell allegedly told him that this is how boys get what they wanted and that he could help “fix” his grades. The man claims that when in 7th grade, he went to the school’s principal and told him that Farrell made him feel uncomfortable, but no reports were ever written up or dealt with.

In April 2021, Farrell, a pastor at St. Isidore the Farmer Parish in New Egypt, was placed on leave by the Diocese of Trenton after the suit was received.
