Priest sentenced to three to 23 months for embezzlement
A Roman Catholic priest who acknowledged owning hundreds of child pornography photos, magazines, videotapes and DVDs - as well as embezzling more than $23,000 from the church - was sentenced Tuesday to three to 23 months in jail on the theft charge.
The Rev. Ronald J. Yarrosh, 57, formerly an assistant pastor at St. Ambrose Church in Schuylkill Haven, will also serve 10 years' probation on the child sex abuse charges.
Yarrosh pleaded guilty in April to charges of theft, receiving stolen property, criminal use of a communication facility and three counts of sexual abuse of children. He was also ordered to pay $23,629 in restitution.
