According to newly discovered court records, Father Joseph Illo,
head of San Francisco's Star of the Sea Church, allegedly led the
cover-up of at least two priest sex abuse cases. San Joaquin County court records show cases of Illo's alleged abuse, in many cases preying on single mothers at his churches.
In 2001, the records show that an 11-year-old girl came to Father Illo at St. Joseph's Parish in Modesto to tell him about another priest who had molested her.
