VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - A Catholic priest who worked as a diplomat at the Vatican’s embassy in Washington admitted at the start of his trial on Friday that he had possessed child pornography while based in the United States.
Msgr. Carlo Alberto Capella, who was arrested in the Vatican in April after he had been recalled, told the court he had developed a “morbid” desire after he arrived in the United States to take up the diplomatic post in 2016.
