From Times Wire Reports

Four priests accused of sexually abusing children have been defrocked by the Vatican, the Boston Archdiocese said.

Robert D. Fay, Kelvin Iguabita, Bernard Lane and Robert Ward are “no longer in the clerical state,” meaning they can no longer function as priests and will no longer receive any financial support from the Boston Archdiocese, the archdiocese announced.
