Four Priests From Campion High School Listed For Child Abuse

Four priests who spent time at Campion High School in Prairie du Chien have been added to the Diocese of La Crosse’s list of clergy with substantiated allegations of child sexual abuse. J. Michael Cannon, Thomas R. Haller, J. Roger Lucey and James V. O’Connor were added to the list Wednesday, according to the La Crosse Diocese website. The website states that an allegation is deemed to be substantiated if it has been sufficiently confirmed so as to believe that abuse occurred. The diocese says Cannon was dismissed from the priesthood in 1997 and Haller was dismissed in 1982. Lucey and O’Connor are both deceased.
