The
Diocese of Fredericton is looking into and reviewing information related
to the 8 charges Saint John 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.
