Boise, Idaho • The house of a retired Boise priest who is awaiting trial on child pornography and drug possession charges has been cleaned out and blessed by an exorcist.
The Rev. John Worster, pastor at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Boise who is preparing the property for sale, said he had a diocesan exorcist and others pray over the house.
The Diocese of Boise evicted the Rev. W. Thomas “Tom” Faucher soon after he was arrested, the Idaho Statesman reported.
Mark Manweiler, Faucher's attorney, declined to comment on the exorcism of the church-owned property.
