Former nun convicted of 2 felony sex crimes
Virginia Beach, Virginia -
The former nun accused of molesting a 10-year-old fifth-grader at a Catholic school 35 years ago was convicted Wednesday of two felony sex crimes.
Eileen M. Rhoads, 65, was rushed out of the Virginia Beach Circuit Court building by her attorney, William H. “Happy” O’Brien, after she entered an “Alford” plea to taking indecent liberties with a child and enticement of a child.
In an Alford plea, the defendant does not admit the act, but admits that the prosecution could likely prove the charge.
Judge Edward W. Hanson Jr. will formally sentence Rhoads on Sept. 22.
She faces up to 10 years in prison.
