Priest pleads guilty in child porn case

A former Allentown diocese priest is going to spend some time behind bars after pleading guilty to possessing child porn.  John Mraz pleaded guilty yesterday to charges of pornography, criminal use of a communication device and possession of obscene and other sexual materials.  Sentencing guidelines call for six months to seven years behind bars for each count, however, his plea deal allows him to serve the sentences concurrently.  The former pastor at St. Ann's Church in Emmaus is free while he awaits his sentencing.
