An Oakdale priest who formerly served at a parish in St. Paul pleaded guilty Thursday, Nov. 8, to molesting two boys and possessing child pornography.
Curtis Carl Wehmeyer, 48, sexually abused the boys when he was pastor of Blessed Sacrament on St. Paul’s East Side, he admitted in a Ramsey County District Court hearing Thursday afternoon. He also pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography.
Wehmeyer was charged Sept. 20 with three counts of criminal sexual conduct. He molested the boys in the summer of 2010.
The molestation took place on a camping trip and in a camper that the priest owned in the church parking lot.
