Priest Who Preyed on Young Girls Dies in Jail London Free Press [Canada] January 23, 2007 http://lfpress.ca/newsstand/News/Local/2007/01/23/3432136.html Rev. Charles Sylvestre, whose many young assault victims called him Father Feeler, has died in jail in Kingston. Correctional Service Canada confirmed that Sylvestre died of natural causes shortly before midnight yesterday. An internal investigation will take place, correctional officials said. And a coroner's inquest will be scheduled, as is mandatory for any inmate who dies in jail. The 84-year-old had pleaded guilty last year to 47 counts of indecent assault on girls who attended his churches in Windsor, Sarnia, London, Chatham and Pain Court. He was sentenced in October to three years in jail. At the time, the court was told he had diabetes and a mild case of dementia. |
