Brooklyn Priest Arrested in Alleged Sex Abuse

Brooklyn Priest Arrested in Alleged Sex Abuse

A retired Brooklyn monsignor was arrested Friday and accused of molesting at least one boy.
 
Monsignor Thomas Brady, 78, is the former pastor of the Good Shepherd parish in Marine Park.

 
Police say the incident happened Thursday morning at the church.
 
Brady was retired from the church, but still living in the rectory. He is also the chaplain for the FDNY.
 
He faces multiple charges, including attempted sex abuse and endangering the welfare of a child, according to the Brooklyn District Attorney's office.
 
A special prosecutor will be assigned to the case, since the DA, Charles Hynes, personally knows the Monsignor.
 
There is no statement at this time from the Diocese of Brooklyn.
