Pytel bragged about his sexual misconduct with a teenager at a gathering of friends a few years after the misconduct took place. This evening, we received the following statement (via email) from that source:<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->&#8220;I knew Fr. Ron Pytel many years ago. I recall him telling me, with his partner Fr. Larry Gesy present, that he sexually abused [ Name Withheld ] one summer years ago. \u00a0Ron explained that it created an uproar when the teenager returned home and explained what happened to him. \u00a0Ron explained that he &#8216;got away with it&#8217; by denying it all after being confronted on the facts of the matter. Ron attempted to explain to me that the young man had consented to all of this. When I saw this website, I felt compelled to relate this recollection in hopes of helping anyone who may have been abused by Ron to come forward.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The recollection described below was first discussed with an acquaintance of Fr.
