A
Catholic priest in the German town of Krefeld has been sentenced to six
years in prison on 25 counts of child abuse, the District Court said on
Friday.
The 56-year-old priest, whose name was
withheld due to privacy considerations, sexually abused his godson and
the boy’s brother on dozens of occasions, with the court finding proof
for 25 of those.
The judge’s six-year sentence exceeds the sentence of five-and-a-half years that prosecutors had originally sought.
