The presentation of evidence in the B.C. Supreme Court trial of Father Phil Jacobs is expected to wrap up today.
Jacobs, who is charged with four sexual offences involving boys while he was working as a Roman Catholic priest, spent all of Tuesday on the stand after beginning his testimony Monday afternoon.
The 63-year-old Jacobs is accused of offences against three boys between September 1996 and June 2001.
He was parish priest at St. Joseph the Worker Catholic Church from 1997 to 2002.
Much of Jacobs’s testimony in the judge-alone trial has been in response to questioning from defence lawyer Chris Considine.
