A lay official with the Diocese of Oakland has been arrested on suspicion of possessing and sharing child pornography, NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Unit confirms.
“In reviewing this situation, we have not discovered any potential criminal conduct by Jeremiah York in the course of his employment, or occurring on Cathedral property, utilizing its property, or involving parishioners, including minors,” Osman wrote. “No arrests have occurred on Cathedral property, and the Diocese of Oakland, which oversees the Cathedral, has cooperated with law enforcement.”
“I was just appalled and astounded by that,” Stier said. “My source didn’t want to be named, but [they] gave me permission to pursue this.” Stier said some liturgies, such as baptisms and communions, involve children, and that the Diocese has a duty to be transparent with parishioners about York’s arrest.
