The Diocese of Fredericton is looking into and reviewing information related to the 8 charges Common Councillor Donnie Snook is facing.
In a release, Archbishop Claude Miller says he remains shocked and saddened. Snook’s position as executive director of the Saint John Inner City Youth Ministry — which includes the Chicken Noodle Club — is suspended with pay until the resolution of the charges.
The 40-year-old is facing charges of sexual interference on a child under 16, possession of and making child pornography, and making it available. He was arrested at his house on Martha Avenue Wednesday night. Snook remains in custody and will appear in court tomorrow for a bail hearing.
