Bangor Priest Remains Behind Bars On Child Porn Charge

A Bangor priest, accused of sex crimes against children, was in court Wednesday.

52-year-old Adam Metropoulos is charged with sexual abuse of a minor, possession of sexually explicit materials and violation of privacy.

He pleaded not guilty to all charges, according to Penobscot County District Attorney Chris Almy.

He was suspended from his duties at St. George Greek Orthodox Church after his arrest in September.

Police say a woman staying at his home told them Metropoulos used a hidden camera to record her in the shower.

Prosecutors tell us the investigation revealed child pornography on his computer.

They also say he admitted to having sexual contact with children but prosecutors say the charges involve only one boy.

Metropoulos has a previous conviction for a sexual assault in Michigan in 1983.
