CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. — A Saratoga County priest has been sentenced for having physical contact with a 15-year-old girl.
James Michael Taylor or ‘Father Michael’ had a relationship with the girl between last October and April.
He was a deacon and youth minister at the Corpus Christi Church in Clifton Park at the time.
Investigators say Taylor’s relationship with the girl involved physical contact text messages and photos.
He pleaded guilty in August to endangering the welfare of a child.
The judge said Wednesday this was the most complicated case he’s ever had.
