‘Evil’ ex-priest who plotted the murder of teen who accused him of rape at gunpoint sentenced to life in prison

A former Roman Catholic priest accused of sexually-assaulting a boy at gun point and then hiring a hit man to kill him has been charged with life imprisonment.

John Fiala met with the alleged hit man in November 2010 and offered to pay him $5,000 to murder the youth, instructing him to ‘chop his head off’.

The allegations of abuse were made by a 16-year-old boy in April 2010.

The teen alleges that the abuse took place during private catechism classes at the Sacred Heart church, Rocksprings, where Fiala was an administrator, and in a hotel room in 2007 and 2008.
