Sciacca, June 26 – A former priest was charged Wednesday with committing sexual acts with minors and is expected to appear in court next month. Davide Mordino, 42, the former pastor of the Basilica of Saint Calogero in Sciacca, a town on the southwest coast of Sicily, is under house arrest until his court appearance July 17. Police say the former priest performed sexual acts with four boys, while two others say he tried to assault them as well. Mordino, who left the basilica just before Christmas in 2009, is accused of having induced minors to pose naked for photos.
