Darien Priest Granted Two-week Delay for Reporting to Prison By Monica Potts The Advocate September 2, 2008 http://www.stamfordadvocate.com/ci_10362024 STAMFORD - A judge delayed for the fourth time Tuesday the date when a Catholic priest convicted of stealing more than $1 million from his Darien church must report to prison. The Rev. Michael Jude Fay, the former pastor of St. John Roman Catholic Church, was to begin his three-year prison sentence at the Federal Medical Center in Butner, N.C., Wednesday. Fay is being treated at Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York for prostate cancer. The Bureau of Prisons is in ongoing discussions with Fay's doctors about how to administer an experimental drug with which he is being treated, according to the letter. Fay has medical appointments scheduled for Thursday and Sept. 10, according to a letter and a joint motion from Nora Dannehy, Acting United States Attorney for the state, and Fay's attorney, Lawrence Hopkins. A telephone status conference call is planned for Sept. 10. Fay pleaded guilty last September to interstate transportation of money obtained by fraud and was sentenced to 37 months in prison. Fay is now scheduled to begin his sentence Sept. 17. |
