About 50 people have gathered outside the downtown jail in Sacramento awaiting the bail release of the Rev. Uriel Ojeda, the Catholic priest who has been accused of molesting a girl under 14 years old.

Ojeda’s attorney, Jesse Ortiz, said that the reverend is scheduled to be released on bond sometime before 5 p.m. today.

Supporters of the 32-year-old Ojeda hoisted balloons and sang songs while they waited for him to walk out of the front door of the jail at 651 I St.
