'Molesting me was the worst mistake you’ve ever made. If there even is a God, he abandoned you a long time ago,' a victim said in court.
NOBLESVILLE — A judge on Wednesday sentenced suspended Indianapolis priest David Marcotte to a year on home detention under a plea agreement that ends his trial on allegations he sexually abused a teenage boy six years ago.
The victim, now 20, lives in another state and is attending college. In a letter to the court, the young man called Marcotte"the bald-headed pedophile creep in the defendant’s chair." "it is my intent to show this court that I mean what I say," Marcotte said as the victim's parents looked on in silence.
Marcotte, ordained in 2014, was suspended on Feb. 12, 2019, just six days after the Archdiocese of Indianapolis said it had learned of the allegations.
