Summary of Abuse Allegations against Father Thomas Bayley:

Father Thomas Bayley’s name appears on the Diocese of Syracuse’s list of clergy credibly accused of sexual abuse of minors, published in December 2018.  The Diocese released almost no information on the allegations against each priest, including age/gender of the victims, or the priest’s assignment at the time of the alleged abuse. According to the Diocese, Bayley was the subject of one allegation of abuse.

Bayley is among 20 priests who were dead at the time an allegation of abuse was reported and faced no claims while alive, according to the Diocese of Syracuse.
