	Episcopal Chuch Court Covicts Priest of Sexual Misconduct Associated Press, carried in KGBT February 12, 2008 http://www.team4news.com/Global/story.asp?S=7857821&nav=menu90_3_4 HOUSTON - An ecclesiastical court in Houston has found a retired Episcopal priest committed sexual misconduct while he was a school chaplain. The religious court of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas found the Rev. James L. Tucker guilty of immoral behavior and conduct unbecoming of a clergyman. That's according to diocese spokeswoman Carol Barnwell. The 80-year-old Tucker was a chaplain at Austin's St. Stephen's Episcopal School in the 1960s. Three men who had been students at the school testified before the church court. Tucker retired in 1992 after serving 22 years at St. James Episcopal Church in Houston. He then briefly served as an interim priest at Palmer Memorial Episcopal Church in Houston. The court will meet in 30 days to recommend a sentence.
