Urbano Vazquez is charged with sexually assaulting two girls and one women who were members of his Northwest Washington parish.

By Keith L. Alexander and Keith L. Alexander Reporter covering crime and courts, specifically D.C. Superior Court cases Email Bio Follow Michelle Boorstein Michelle Boorstein Religion reporter Email Bio Follow March 22 at 4:23 PM A Catholic priest who is charged with sexually assaulting three members of his Northwest Washington parish rejected a plea offer from prosecutors Friday and agreed to go to trial.

Vazquez was charged with two counts of felony second degree child abuse and one count of misdemeanor sexual abuse. According to a court filing, if convicted without the plea deal, Vazquez could face as much as 13 years in prison. With the plea deal, Vazquez could face about half that time. A hearing is scheduled for late May in which D.C. Superior Court Judge Juliet McKenna will decide whether to allow all of the charges to be included as part of one trial, or if Vazquez must face different trials for each victim.
