Summary of Sexual Abuse Allegations Against Father Theodore Tsiakalos:
The date of Fr. Theodore Tsiakalos’ ordination to the priesthood is unknown. His name is listed on the Diocese of Rockville Centre’s 2021 List of Clergy Credibly Accused of Sexual Abuse of a Minor. The list states that the alleged sexual abuse occurred while Fr. Tsiakalos worked at St. Anthony Church in Oceanside, NY, sometime between 1960-1963. The priest reportedly abused his victim(s) in his car. The details of the sexual abuse allegations, including the victim’s age/gender, are unknown.
It is important to note that the list, released in March 2021, is not exhaustive. “It is a list of all priests and deacons that the Diocese knows have been the subject of an adverse determination by the Diocesan Review Board of the Debtor that an allegation of clergy abuse against such priest was credible or against whom an allegation of clergy abuse was made through the Diocese’s Independent Reconciliation and Compensation Program (“IRCP”) and the Debtor made a payment in settlement of such allegation through the IRCP.”
