CINCINNATI (WKRC) — A federal judge sentences a priest who molested a boy to 7 and a half years in prison. Father Robert Poandl was convicted of federal sex abuse charges back in September.
Prosecutors successfully argued that Poandl abused a boy during a visit to a church in Spencer, West Virginia in 1991. The victim was ten-years-old at the time. Poandl had served as a priest with the Glenmary Home Missioners in Fairfield between 1998 and 1994.
