PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Monsignor William Lynn has been released from prison.
According to officials, Lynn was fitted with an electronic monitor and released from Philadelphia County Prison on Friday afternoon.
He reportedly must remain within city boundaries and is staying with an undisclosed relative until his Monday hearing.
On Thursday, Lynn was released from state prison, where he’d been housed for 18 months after being charged with child endangerment for reassigning sexually abusive priests to other parishes instead reporting them to law enforcement (see previous story).
