A federal judge has overturned the decision of a magistrate judge to release a Central City Catholic priest accused of sexual abuse while he awaits trial.

Joseph Maurizio Jr., 69, is charged with sexually assaulting Honduran children while performing missionary work. U.S. Magistrate Judge Keith Pesto placed him on home detention on Nov. 6 until the disposition of his trial.
