The picture of Fr Anthony Mercieca, the 72-year-old disgraced Gozitan priest named by former US Senator Mark Foley as his alleged abuser 40 years ago, is seen still hanging at the Gozo Cathedral Library in this picture taken last Thursday. The Gozitan used to send hundreds of books in donation to the Cathedral Library at the time when he was in the US decades ago. Fr Mercieca is also facing charges of child abuse filed by a former altar boy who is claiming more than USD10 million in damages. Fr Mercieca admitted fondling Foley but denied that he molested the second boy.
