The Gozitan priest accused of sexual abuse involving underage boys will be called to Miami to give testimony in court, once the case goes to trial.
The legal team representing an unnamed 41yr old man who has filed a $10 million civil lawsuit against the Miami Archdiocese has confirmed it's intentions to call Fr Mercieca to the witness stand.
The lawsuit alleges that the Miami Archdiocese had previous knowledge that Fr Mercieca had sexually abused other boys before and within the timeframe it is claimed that he abused the plaintiff.
It also alleges that the Miami Archdiocese destroyed a number of incriminating documents and files with the intention of concealing the sexual abuse of minors by Mercieca and other priests.
