Catholic Deacon Faces Multiple Sexual Abuse Charges

Dan Paul Stallings, a former Catholic deacon, was charged on Tuesday with child sexual abuse and released on $20,000 bond. He was already facing charges of sexually abusing an underage female relative in the 1960's and 70's.

Police say Dan Paul Stallings was charged Tuesday with child sexual abuse after a second victim came forward alleging that she was abused in 1998 after an event at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in Silver Spring. Police say the victim was 15 or 16 years old.
