Father Jean Claude Jean-Philippe, the parochial vicar at Sacred Heart Catholic Church
in Homestead, has been charged with sexual battery of an incapacitated
victim . He remained jailed Saturday at the Turner Guilford Knight
Correctional Center and has been placed on administrative leave while
the allegation is being investigated.
According to a police report, the woman is a parishioner at the church, and Jean-Philippe had even officiated her wedding.
In October, the 64-year-old
priest invited her to his home on the church grounds, offering her tea.
She passed out and after drinking the tea, according to the police
report, she woke up naked in his bed about two hours later.
