A former St. Paul priest got a stern dressing-down by a judge this morning for failing to cooperate with his probation officer.
Christopher Wenthe, formerly of Nativity of Our Lord parish in St. Paul, was convicted Nov. 15 of criminal sexual conduct in a case that involved a 21-year-old penitent. He is serving one year in the Ramsey County workhouse.
