Former Priest Rodis to Be Sentenced Today Richmond Times-Dispatch February 20, 2008 http://www.inrich.com/cva/ric/news.apx.-content-articles-RTD-2008-02-20-0200.html VIRGINIA -- A former Louisa County priest is to be sentenced today in Richmond federal court for fraud and money-laundering convictions. Rodney L. Rodis, 51, is alleged to have stolen $515,000 in donations from two churches in Louisa. Parishioners also knew nothing about his secret life as a family man 50 miles away in Fredericksburg. Rodis entered guilty pleas last October to one count of fraud and one of money laundering. He has admitted stealing at least $400,000 since 2002. The money was used to support his family and some was wired to a bank in his native Philippines where relatives used it to purchase real estate. |
