A Manitoba judge has ruled that two brothers who say they were sexually abused by an Orthodox priest will have their testimony considered jointly.
The two complainants were preteens in the summer of 1985 when they were sent, on separate occasions, to live and work as altar boys with Seraphim Storheim in Winnipeg.
The men have already told the trial Storheim walked around naked and asked them to touch him sexually.
One brother has told the trial Storheim would sometimes lie on the floor and touch himself.
Storheim, now in his 60s, worked as a priest in the Orthodox Church in America in Alberta, North Carolina, London, Ontario, and other areas.
