    I did a search on him limited to results before this week, this is from the second link:

    In 1999, Prevost took over the Midwestern Province of the Order of Saint Augustine.

    He oversaw St. Rita of Cascia H.S. in Chicago’s Ashburn neighborhood as well as St. Jude parish and Providence Catholic High School in New Lenox, where school president Rev. Richard McGrath reported to Prevost.

    McGrath was forced out of his position in 2017, after a Providence student reported seeing a nude image of a boy on his cell phone while he watched a wrestling match. He was later accused of sexual abuse by a former Providence student. The Midwestern Province paid $2 million in 2023 to settle the case.

      Did Prevost force McGrath out of his position? Did he support the accuser or the victims?

      Hrm…
