TULIA — The trial for a former priest accused of Indecency With a Child has been postponed.

John Salazar’s trial was supposed to start today in Swisher County, but for some reason was postponed.

Officials haven’t given a reason why.

You’ll remember, Salazar pleaded guilty to the charge back in 2001. Salazar was a priest from the Amarillo Catholic Diocese working in Tulia until 2003.
