Father Houlihan Had Many Sons

And here he is:

Great Falls-Billings, Mont.

When the Rev. John Houlihan was accused two years ago of sexually harassing and discriminating against a priest under his supervision, Bishop Milone said the allegations were not credible and left him on the job. Another priest had made a sexual assault allegation against Father Houlihan in 1994, but the bishop said that alleged victim had refused to talk. However, Gene Jarussi, a Billings lawyer who has represented both accusers, said the first claim "was settled on its merits" for a confidential sum. His current client, the Rev. Anandan Elangovan, has a federal lawsuit pending against the diocese and Father Houlihan, who deny wrongdoing. A state human rights investigator has dismissed a complaint from Father Elangovan, who was himself accused of sexually harassing a female parishioner.
