A former spiritual adviser to Mother Teresa failed this morning to get out of a 7 year prison term, for molesting 2 boys near Lake Geneva in the 1960’s.

The State Supreme Court unanimously upheld Donald McGuire’s conviction on 5 counts of indecent behavior with children. He was charged 36 years after the incident, and he said the delay hurt his ability to defend himself. But all 7 justices did not agree.

McGuire taught at a suburban Chicago boys’ academy when he molested 2 teenage boys from that school at a cottage at Fontana in Walworth County.

McGuire, who’s now in his late 70’s, had his prison sentence delayed while he appealed the case. But he’s currently serving 25 years behind bars for another matter. McGuire was convicted in 2008 on federal charges of leaving the U.S. to have sex with a teen. That happened almost a decade ago.
