Police Find No Evidence of Abuse in Suicide Case

By Associated Press

Owensboro, KY – Owensboro police have finished their investigation of the suicide of a man outside a Catholic church and found no evidence of alleged sexual abuse. David Jarboe killed himself in February outside Blessed Mother Catholic Church. In a Facebook posting that addressed three priests, he thanked one, forgave another and called the third "an evil man." Jarboe said online he hoped his message would prevent other children from having to endure the "pain and torment" he had to go through. The Messenger-Inquirer reports the Owensboro Diocese also investigated and said last month it failed to turn up any evidence of abuse.
