Bishop DiMarzio is already the subject of a Vatican ordered investigation, following the first allegation, made in November, 2019, which DiMarzio has also categorically denied.
Father Buckley said that he had two main areas of concern when it came to his parish: providing food to his parishioners, and ensuring their psychological health.
Mark Matzek, 56, says Bishop DiMarzio and another priest, who is now deceased, repeatedly abused him when he was an altar server in the Archdiocese of Newark, New Jersey.
A statement released by the Diocese of Brooklyn Thursday said that DiMarzio had traveled to the diocese of Bishop Richard Malone and interviewed more than 30 people earlier this week.
It was not announced when Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio would begin his apostolic investigation of the diocese and beleaguered Bishop Richard Malone.
