Reilly unfounded and permitted him to continue functioning as a retired priest in good standing. Msgr. Reilly was included in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles’ list of priests accused of sexual misconduct involving minors. It is believed Msgr. Reilly was residing in Burbank, CA and may have died in 2018.
