I can’t get the Globe’s page to load on my cell phone. Does it explain how he was molested at the ripe old age of 21?
He claims he was homeless and taken in by a priest. I think the Globe has the church wrong, I believe they meant Westford, not Westwood.
In the suit, Eisenberg said his mother died when he was young and he was abused by his alcoholic father. He alleges he was homeless and living in abandoned cars in an Ayer junkyard when a priest invited him to live and work at St. Catherine's and another priest plied him with alcohol, showed him pornographic material, and molested him.
In an interview with the Lowell Sun in 2002 after his suit was filed, Eisenberg said he was ashamed and mortified after being sexually assaulted by the priest. "Subsequently, I spent years sexually objectifying women and womanizing in a futile to prove I wasn't a" homosexual, the Sun quoted Eisenberg as saying.
The priest denied molesting Eisenberg, and the newspaper reported that Eisenberg's paternal aunt said, "He's telling you a big story."
