WOODLAND (CBS13) – A Davis priest who pleaded guilty to charges of having a sexual relationship with a teenager was sentenced by a Yolo County Superior Court judge Friday.

CBS13 confronted Fr. Hector Coria about the allegations and sentencing.

“Excuse me father, what do you have to say about the sentencing? What do you have to say about that?” we asked.

“No comment,” Coria said.

“No comment at all? So the allegations are true?” we asked.

“No comments.”

Investigators and church officials say Coria admitted to having an ongoing sexual relationship with one of his alter girls –- a 16-year-old –- at St. James Parish in Davis.
