A Catholic priest in Ohio is the latest to be convicted as the church continues to encounter allegations of sex abuse against its priests.
A jury has convicted an Ohio Catholic priest on five counts of sex trafficking, the Department of Justice announced.
The DOJ said he began grooming the victims when they were young boys while serving at St. Catherine’s Catholic Parish school in Toledo, Ohio. Prosecutors said he integrated himself into the boys’ families “as a trusted friend, mentor and spiritual counselor.”
