PITTSBURGH (AP) — A suspended Roman Catholic priest has pleaded guilty to possessing and receiving countless images of child pornography on his computer and now faces at least five years in federal prison.
Bartley Sorensen, 63, was a priest at a suburban Pittsburgh parish in December when a church employee saw him viewing a picture of a half-naked boy in his rectory office.
When she contacted a church abuse hotline, Allegheny County detectives and the FBI eventually investigated and found thousands of child pornograpny images on CDs, DVDs and in books in Sorensen’s church residence.
