YORK, Maine — A former Roman Catholic priest who spent more than a decade in a Massachusetts prison for raping an altar boy has been indicted in Maine on 29 counts of sexual misconduct dating to the 1980s.

York County District Attorney Kathryn Slattery said some counts against 74-year-old Ronald Paquin involve a child under 14.

Paquin, freed in 2015, was a central figure in the Boston archdiocese’s sex abuse scandal. In 2002, he pleaded guilty to raping an altar boy. Although he was convicted of raping one boy, several other people accused him of molesting them. At sentencing, Paquin expressed remorse through his lawyer and said that as a teenager, he was abused by a priest.
