As if raping a 16 yr old was not bad enough
One Catholic priest in Texas, having been accused by his victim of multiple forcible rapes, decided to hire a hit man to eliminate the evidence. As so often happens, the alleged hit man he tried to hire was a police undercover agent.
The now ex-priest, John Fiala, was convicted yesterday of trying to hire a hit man in Dallas to kill the accuser in 2010. The jury that convicted him will decide his punishment. He faces up to life in prison...I hope Bubba's old "girlfriend" doesn't get jealous.
UPDATE: The jury sentenced Fiala to 60 years in prison. He will be eligible for parole after 15 years...
The sex assault accuser is not being named because The Dallas Morning News generally does not identify possible victims of sex crimes. He also testified on Wednesday.
The 53-year-old former Roman Catholic priest faces separate charges he sexually assaulted the boy in West Texas several years ago, including at gunpoint.
The accuser said Fiala would help take him to see his girlfriend, who lived a few hours away. The attacks would sometimes occur in hotel rooms Fiala rented en route to see the girlfriend.
