Priest Guilty in Sex Abuse of 2 Young Boys
From Times Wire Services
A Roman Catholic priest was found guilty of molesting two young brothers from a family he had befriended.
Father Daniel Clark, 55, convicted on two counts of sexual abuse, had pleaded guilty in a similar case 15 years earlier but was allowed to remain a priest.
The jury recommended the maximum of five years in prison on each count, to be served consecutively.
Prosecutors said molestations of the victims, who are now 12 and 13, took place over a four-year period ending in 2002.
