A Dutchess County parish priest has been removed from ministry
permanently after decades-old sexual abuse allegations against him were
found to have merit.
Law enforcement and the New York Archdiocesan Review Board examined the allegations against Peter Kihm and found them to be credible, Bishop Dominick Lagonegro wrote in a March 14 letter to parishioners of the Church of the Good Shepherd in Rhinebeck. As a result of that review, he said, Kihm cannot return to ministry.
