ALLENTOWN, Pa. (AP) - A Roman Catholic priest in Pennsylvania caught with child pornography by someone helping with his computer is going to jail.
The Morning Call of Allentown reported (https://bit.ly/2xnUcbN ) 67-year-old Monsignor John S. Mraz apologized and was sentenced Thursday to six to 23 months.
He’ll have to register as a sex offender for 15 years.
He pleaded guilty in June to possessing child pornography and related offenses.
Court records say authorities began investigating Mraz last year, after a member of his church discovered a file link named “naked little boys.”
Mraz was formerly with St. Ann Catholic Church in Emmaus, and was once chaplain at Lehigh University in Bethlehem. He’s also a former teacher at Central Catholic High School in Allentown.
