BANGOR, Maine — The priest of St. George Greek Orthodox Church, 90 Sanford St., was arrested Monday after being accused of possessing child pornography and photographing a woman without her permission.

Adam Metropoulos, 52, of Bangor was charged with one count each of possession of sexually explicit material, a Class C crime, and violation of privacy, a Class C crime, according to Bangor police.

Efforts to reach members of the St. George Parish Council were unsuccessful late Monday afternoon.

Metropoulos is being held at the Penobscot County Jail. Bail of $10,000 cash was requested by the Penobscot County district attorney’s office.

The investigation began Saturday when a woman reportedly complained to police that she believed she had been photographed or video recorded without her permission or knowledge.
