Francis Talbot molested him repeatedly from 1959 to 1964, starting when he was about 7 years old.<br> <br> Talbot was on a list of priests accused of sexually molesting children that the diocese released last year. He faces several civil lawsuits.<br> <br> Horion, who now lives in Atlanta, told The Union Leader the diocese should pay damages to victims, but he also wants church officials to fully disclose the archdiocese&#39;s finances, including how much it has paid to fight the victims&#39; claims.<br> <br> He also wants abusive priests removed from the priesthood, not just from ministry, and says Bishop John McCormack should resign.<br>
