Former priest target of suits files for bankruptcy

MERRILLVILLE, Ind. (AP) - A former Roman Catholic priest accused in lawsuits of molesting boys has filed for bankruptcy.
The Post-Tribune reports that Richard Emerson filed for bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Georgia on Feb. 24. The Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing lists five pending civil lawsuits to which Emerson is a party. They stem from accusations from his time as a priest in northwest Indiana and Orlando, Fla.
