A Jesuit priest who coached soccer at Cheverus High School in Portland will plead guilty today to five counts of sexually abusing boys he coached while at Boston College High School in the 1970s.
The Suffolk County District Attorney's Office in Massachusetts confirmed Monday that the Rev. James F. Talbot will change his "not guilty" plea to "guilty" at 2 p.m. today.
He is scheduled to be sentenced Jan. 24 on one count of rape, one count of assault with intent to rape, and three counts of indecent assault and battery.
In 2002, Talbot was indicted on one count of rape, one count of assault with intent to rape and five counts of indecent assault and battery.
