Ex-priest found guilty in sex trial
October 24, 2008
Donald McGuire, the defrocked Jesuit priest who once served as a spiritual adviser to Mother Teresa, was convicted today in federal court in Chicago of engaging in sexual acts with a minor during trips abroad between 2000 and 2002.
The victim, identified in court only as Dominick, testified the abuse started when he was 13.
To buttress the government case, four additional witnesses testified that McGuire also molested them during overseas trips when they were underage.
McGuire was convicted in Wisconsin in 2006 of molesting two students from Loyola Academy in Wilmette during trips near Lake Geneva in the 1960s. He is appealing his 7-year prison sentence.
McGuire, 78, faces up to 30 years in prison when he is sentenced Dec. 18, though the range of the actual sentence he might face has yet to be calculated.
