Slocum Arraigned, Released

Father Sam Slocum was arraigned today on charges related to an alleged inappropriate relationship with a 15-year-old boy.

Slocum, who turns 60 on Saturday, appeared before District Judge Rich Luther at around 1 o’clock this afternoon on charges of interfering with the custody of children and concealment of the whereabouts of a child.

He was released on bond with the stipulation that he not have any contact with the victim, his family or any other minors. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 20.

Slocum is accused of communicating with the boy after his mother said she didn’t want them to be in contact. The alleged incidents happened between January 1 and March 29.

Bishop Donald Trautman placed Slocum on a leave of absence while the case makes its way through the court system.
