A suspended priest, accused of performing sex acts on a 15-year-old boy, pleaded guilty Wednesday to felony corruption of minors.
The Rev. William Jeffrey Paulish, 57, 450 3rd St., Blakely, entered the plea before Lackawanna County Judge Michael Barrasse. He was arrested in September after he was caught in his car with a 15-year-old boy in the parking lot at Penn State Worthington Scranton campus.
The felony charge carries a maximum sentence of seven years, according to Paulish’s attorney, Bernard Brown, who said his client is remorseful for his actions.
