FAIRBANKS — A federal magistrate judge granted bail on Friday to a Fairbanks priest accused of trying to make child pornography.

Clint Landry was released to the care of two third-party custodians after a bail hearing Friday morning, according to federal court records.

Landry, 57, had been in federal custody at Fairbanks Correctional Center.

He was arrested last week on charges of attempted production of child pornography and one count of attempted coercion and enticement of a minor for crimes that allegedly took place in May.

Landry had been a priest at Sacred Heart Cathedral, Fairbanks’ largest Catholic congregation.
