Former cardinal Theodore McCarrick was criminally charged Wednesday with allegedly sexually assaulting a 16-year-old boy during a wedding reception at Wellesley College in Massachusetts in 1974, according to the Boston Globe. The charges make McCarrick, who is a former archbishop of Washington, D.C., the highest-ranking Catholic official in the country to face criminal charges for sex abuse.
