A Louisville priest accused of sexually abusing a man who attended a
Catholic summer camp in the 1970s says he did not abuse the man, who was
10 at the time.
The Rev. Joseph Hemmerle is testifying Tuesday in Meade County, which was the site of a summer camp he ran for three decades beginning in the 1970s. Michael Norris, a camper at Camp Tall Trees in 1973, says Hemmerle stood him on a stool with no clothes and sexually abused him in Hemmerle’s room. Norris went to the room for poison ivy treatment.
