COLDWATER, Mich. (WOOD) — The Coldwater Police Department says it also investigated a priest, who recently has been charged with unlawful imprisonment, back in 2017.
This week, the Michigan Attorney General’s Office charged Father Brian Stanley with an incident that allegedly occurred at St. Margaret’s Church in Otsego back in 2013.
Investigators say the teen was wrapped tightly with saran wrap by Stanley and left in a room for more than an hour.
In a statement, Diocese of Kalamazoo said it contacted the Coldwater Police Department and the Otsego Police Department about allegations of Stanley’s conduct.
However, neither department brought forward charges against Stanley at the time.
In February 2017, the Diocese of Kalamazoo asked the Coldwater Police Department to investigate alleged conduct done by a priest who served at the St. Charles Borromeo Church, according to a news release from the police department.
