Father Patrick James Ryan, an archdiocesan priest who retired in 2008, was wrongly pictured on the photo board Attorney Jeff Anderson, of Jeff Anderson & Associates PA, displayed during a Dec. 5 press conference in St. Paul.
Anderson’s press conference addressed a list of 33 priests with credible claims of sexual abuse of a minor against them.
A different Father Patrick Ryan was among those listed with an unsubstantiated claim against them. He was born in 1892, ordained in 1919 and died in 1965.
