Predator priests

Jason Sigler

Lives in Albuquerque Sigler, 79, who left the priesthood in 1982, pleaded guilty in Albuquerque to a charge of criminal sexual penetration of a minor in 1983 and received a deferred sentence, according to Journal reports.

Sigler was sentenced in 2003 to a year in prison for molesting two boys in the 1970s while serving in the Archdiocese of Detroit. Later, in 2003, he pleaded guilty to molesting two other boys in another Michigan parish in the 1970s and was sentenced to a sevento 15-year prison term in the Michigan Department of Corrections.

He was released on parole in May 2012 and resided in Michigan until completing his parole on Nov. 29, 2013, according to MLive.com, a Michigan news website.

The Archdiocese of Santa Fe settled at least 26 lawsuits in the 1990s filed by people who said Sigler had sexually abused them as children while he served as a priest in Albuquerque, Fort Sumner and Las Vegas, N.M., in the 1970s and early 1980s.

Sabine Griego

Lives in Las Vegas Records released Wednesday show Griego, 79, has been alleged to have sexually abused 32 children at New Mexico parishes he has pastored since he was ordained at St. Francis Cathedral in Santa Fe in 1964.

Griego has been identified as an abuser in a number of lawsuits. A 1993 lawsuit alleged that then-Archbishop Robert Sanchez transferred Griego to Albuquerque in 1979 after allegations surfaced that he had molested boys in Las Vegas. Griego served as pastor from 1979 to 1991 at Queen of Heaven parish in Albuquerque.

Griego resigned from Queen of Heaven in 1991 after sexual misconduct allegations were made against him there, according to news reports. He was later suspended by the archdiocese.

Arthur Perrault

Fled the U.S. Court records released Wednesday show that Perrault, 79, allegedly sexually abused at least 38 New Mexico children since he was sent by the Archdiocese of Hartford, Conn., to a now-closed facility in Jemez Springs operated by the Servants of the Paraclete, which received pedophile priests from around the nation.

He left Jemez Springs in 1967 and became a diocesan priest in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe, serving posts at St. Pius X High School and several Albuquerque parishes. He fled Albuquerque in 1992, just days before an Albuquerque attorney filed a lawsuit alleging Perrault sexually assaulted seven children in his parish.

After vanishing for a quarter century, Perrault turned up last year in Morocco, working at an English-language school for children, from where he was subsequently fired. It is not clear where he is now.
