FLUSHING, MI – An ex-priest convicted of molesting boys at Flushing’s St. Robert Bellarmine Parish in the 1970s is free and living in New Mexico, according to the New Mexico sex offender database.
His release with six years to go on his maximum sentence has upset the mother of a former St. Robert altar boy, as well as the former prosecutor who put him behind bars.
Jason E. Sigler, 75, was sentenced to seven- to 15-years in prison after pleading guilty in Genesee Circuit Court to two counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct in 2003 for molesting Anthony Otero in the mid-1970s.
Sigler also pleaded no contest to molesting Otero’s brother. Sigler was released in May 2012 after serving 9 years of his term, according to the Michigan Department of Corrections.
