A Banning school administrator who’s in jail facing child sex charges is a defrocked priest.

The Banning Unified School District says 55-year-old Charles Mayer is now on unpaid leave.

The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of L.A. says Mayer has not been in active ministry for nearly 20 years. Mayer was caught in a sting operation allegedly sending nude photos of himself to a person he thought was a 14-year-old boy.
