| Father John Steger |
A catholic priest from Gates was in court Wednesday for his preliminary hearing. Father John Steger, 80, is accused of sexually abusing a 12-year-old girl in April and early May. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges. In court Wednesday the judge adjourned the case until July 12th. Steger has been the pastor of Saint Jude the Apostle Church in Gates for almost 40 years. Some church members were in court to show their support for Reverend Steger.
Reverend Steger is on administrative leave.
