Fr. Anthony J. Conti

Formerly recognized as A. J. “Anthony” Helinski until at least 1988, this individual was stripped of their title in 2002 following accusations of engaging in sexual misconduct with a minor over two decades prior. As a result, they were permanently barred from participating in any form of ministry. Their involvement in a civil lawsuit in 2004 further solidified their tarnished reputation. Eventually, in June 2006, they were officially removed from the clergy and they died on October 9, 2016. To add to their history, on June 10, 2019, their name was included on the archdiocese’s list of individuals deemed to have credible accusations against them.
