Former ET Priest William Casey Convicted of Sexual Abuse in 30-year-old Case By Kacie Breeding Knox News July 15, 2011 http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2011/jul/15/former-et-priest-convicted-of-sexual-abuse-in-30/ A former East Tennessee priest faces sentencing July 22 after being convicted Thursday of charges that he raped and sexually abused a teenage boy 30 years ago who looked to him as a father figure. William Casey, 77, of Greene-ville was taken into custody immediately from a Sullivan County courtroom and is being held without bond. Casey formerly had been a priest in Knoxville. His crimes occurred shortly after becoming priest of St. Dominic's Catholic Church in Kingsport in the 1970s. Jurors delivered their verdict of guilty to first-degree sexual misconduct and two counts of aggravated rape about 1 p.m. Thursday. |
