Springfield Catholic diocese updates credibly accused report with additional allegation against dead priest

SPRINGFIELD – The Roman Catholic Diocese of Springfield on Wednesday released its quarterly update of credibly accused clergy with a new allegation against the late Rev. Thomas J. OConnor.
OConnor, who died in 1987, previously had just one credible allegation of sexual abuse of a minor leveled against him, according to a running list maintained and updated by the diocese. The church updated the list to add one more.
