-In 1987, Fr. Richard Barry Bartz was accused of sexually abusing a 17-year-old at St. Ignatius College Prep, as well as the attempted abuse of another minor. Fr. Bartz was subsequently placed on indefinite leave but was allowed to return to ministry with supervision by 1988. In 1992, another survivor came forward and accused Fr. Bartz of child sexual abuse that was alleged to have occurred when he worked at Ascension in 1976. In 2002, Fr. Bartz resigned from ministry. He was laicized in 2015. Fr. Bartz is included in the Archdiocese of Chicago’s list of “Archdiocesan Priests with Substantiated Allegations of Sexual Misconduct with Minors.” Fr. Bartz whereabouts and whether he has had access to children since 2003 are unknown.
