In 2018, a man filed a lawsuit alleging that he was sexually abused by Msgr. Charles J. Beebe in 1981 as a 15-yearold student at the Academy of Our Lady/Spalding Institute. The man alleged he had reported the abuse to Bishop Daniel Jenky of the Diocese of Peoria after the abuse occurred, but was ignored. After the lawsuit was filed, law enforcement was contacted and Msgr. Beebe was placed on leave while an investigation took place. The Diocesan Review Commission deemed the allegation “unsubstantiated” and Msgr. Beebe was reinstated. His whereabouts, status as a priest, and whether he has access to children are unknown.
