In September 2018, Saginaw-area resident, and former priest, Robert J. DeLand, Jr. took a deal, pleading no contest to criminal sexual conduct and six other charges, including gross indecency between males.
DeLand was recently granted parole, and is expected to be set free by early April.
Facebook prohibits convicted sex offenders from its platform, so "Bob Deland" (AKA Fr. Robert J DeLand) will not be able to communicate with his 870 friends, including local teachers and several Saginaw Diocesean officials, priests, and deacons, once he's sprung from prison.
And how do I know that?
Because I filed a formal complaint against DeLand with Facebook.
You can thank me later.
