	Priest, 83, Arrested over Abuse The Press Association April 19, 2010 http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5imtQ1KQGfHoAvg4fxBWjRgmkfbtQ An 83-year-old priest allegedly caught on tape having sex with a 19-year-old altar boy has been arrested by Brazilian authorities. Monsignor Luiz Marques Barbosa was taken into custody late on Sunday after an investigation found evidence that he abused youngsters who worked in his church in north-eastern Brazil. The secretly-filmed video broadcast on the SBT network showed a man who looks like Barbosa in bed and having sex with the altar boy in January last year. A release by the senator leading a congressional paedophilia investigation said that three former altar boys confirmed that they were abused by the priest. Barbosa allegedly told investigators it was a one-time thing.
