BERLIN —
A priest already facing felony charges that he engaged in sexual talk with young boys is facing additional charges, including possession of child pornography and four more case of the priest having sexually charged conversations with young boys.
The new charges arose out of searches of the hard drives of the Rev. Michael Miller’s three computers, which were seized by police at the time of Miller’s initial arrest on July 12, 2011.
Police said a search by forensic examiners at the New Britain police department turned up evidence of chats via Facebook with two 16-year-old boys, a 17-year-old boy, three 15-year-old boys and a 13-year-old boy. Police focused their efforts on the Facebook chats with the boys younger than 16.
