While at the monastery, this monk was on restriction.   Rev. Raymond Dahlheimer     Allegations of Abuse and/or Misconduct   In the 1970's, Fr. Cosmos Dahlheimer allegedly abused at least two students at St. Bernard's Church, attempted to kiss a third victim, and abused his fourth victim on at least six occasions, with the abuse occurring at the cabin and St. Augustine. Dahlheimer allegedly abused a fifth victim on multiple occasions while the two were in Dahlheimer's Abbey vehicle. The earliest known incidents of abuse against Dahlheimer are from 1953, when Dahlheimer made another monk uncomfortable when he kissed and sucked on the earlobes of that monk. Another monk reported that in 1955, Dahlheimer sucked on his earlobes as well. Dahlheimer also tried to kiss the second monk on the lips. One of Dahlheimer's 1970's victims confirmed Dahlheimer's earlobe fetish.   View Related Posts for Rev.
