Trauger served at St. Michael the Archangel in Tullytown between 1993 and 2003, when the assaults happened.
Michael McDonnell, of Bristol, was molested by Trauger in 1981. He says this is a step towards closure.

Trauger was removed from the priesthood in 2003 and two years later was named in the Philadelphia Grand Jury Report about predator priests.
