Priest Convicted in Michigan Abuse Case Gets Harsher Sentence
Description
A Michigan appeals court has upheld the seven-to-fifteen-year sentence for former priest Neil Kalina, convicted of sexually abusing a teen in the 1980s, while ordering a resentencing due to a technical error — a move that could still lead to further appeals as his legal team pushes back. Kalina, who served at St. Kiernan Catholic Church, was part of a broader state probe into clergy abuse, and prosecutors hailed the ruling as a critical step in holding abusers accountable. He’s now serving time at Cooper Street Correctional Facility.
