Prosecutors: Md. priest deposited $76K for donations into personal account

A former St. Mary’s County priest has been indicted on bank fraud charges after authorities say he deposited $76,000 worth of checks that had been donated to the church’s “poor box” into his personal bank account and used the funds to pad his retirement account.
Last week, a federal grand jury indicted John S. Mattingly — a 70-year-old of Charlotte Hall, Maryland — on 20 counts of bank fraud. The indictment was unsealed Sept. 1.
