Catholic priest under investigation for alleged sexual assaults in Waco, Texas

A catholic priest is awaiting extradition from Florida to Central Texas to face sexual assault allegations from his time in Waco.

An investigation into Father Anthony Odiong first began back in March of this year after the Waco Police Department received reports of a sexual assault.

Since then four women in #McLennanCounty have come forward and police are continuing to search for more survivors in their investigation.

Arrested in his residence in a town called Ave Maria ( yes, A religious enclave). When they brought him out of his home in early morning, he was arrested wearing priestly mass vestments. He never was affiliated with any Catholic Church here in Florida
