LAS VEGAS (AP) - A victims' advocacy group wants church officials in Nevada to open records and look for possible victims of a former Catholic priest who was convicted of sexually abusing adolescent boys in Milwaukee.

A Diocese of Las Vegas spokeswoman says the church will respond if allegations are raised about the conduct of defrocked Roman Catholic priest John Patrick Feeney while he was in southern Nevada in 1985 and 1986.

Spokeswoman Rachel Wilkinson says records kept with the Diocese of Reno, which administered the region before the Las Vegas diocese was created in 1995, show Feeney served as an associate pastor at St. Francis De Sales church in Las Vegas. He also served as a prison chaplain under the auspices of St. Joan of Arc in Las Vegas.

The 81-year-old Feeney was convicted in 2004 of sexually assaulting two adolescent brothers in 1978 at St. Nicholas Parish in Freedom, Wisconsin. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

Members of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, held a news conference in Las Vegas today. They are asking that church leaders open the Nevada records and look for possible victims of Feeney.
