Nuns Gone Wild
A former student at an all-girls Catholic high school claims she was sexually assaulted more than a decade ago by a nun who taught morals and religion and was in charge of recruiting young women into the sisterhood.
Landa Mauriello-Vernon, now living in Rhode Island, says the nun, Sister Linda Cusano, repeatedly forced her into a vacant office in a secluded wing of the school, wrestled her to the floor and threw her body on top of hers, telling her to “submit herself to God,” and “join me in the convent.”
Confrancesco said the woman’s parents sent both of their daughters to the all-girls school to get a ”solid education in a safe environment.” They became alarmed when Landa quit the volleyball team and choral group her senior year and began talking about joining the convent
