Marmion taught in Clongowes Wood College in Clane for a time
The Jesuit Order in Ireland has received 93 complaints of sexual, physical and emotional abuse of boys by the former priest and teacher Joseph Marmion, who it named as a child abuser two years ago.
In March 2021, the Society of Jesus asked victims of Marmion to engage with the Order and a restorative justice programme was established.
A report published by the Society of Jesus, which is a narrative record of Joseph Marmion's abuse, says 45 of the 93 complaints received from 1977 related to child sexual abuse.
14 complaints related to Marmion's time spent teaching in Clongowes Wood College in Clane in the 60s and 70s.
He died in 2000.
Anyone who has any concerns or who has suffered abuse at the hands of any Jesuit are asked to contact the Order's Safeguarding Office by emailing: safeguarding@jesuit.ie.
Or by phoning the Jesuit Safeguarding Helpline on 00 353 830874254 (Monday-Friday 8 am to 8pm; Saturday 10am to 5pm and Sunday 10am to 2pm).
