## Resource

An 83-year-old former priest, Ronald Paquin, has died in a Maine prison after serving a 16-year sentence for sexually abusing an altar boy in the 1980s. Already convicted and imprisoned for a similar offense in Massachusetts — where he served over a decade before being released in 2015 — Paquin was extradited to Maine in 2019 to serve his second sentence. His death marks the end of a troubling legal chapter, raising questions about accountability and the lasting impact of these crimes.
