Towson Catholic Priest Gets 3 Years Probation For Indecent Exposure

BEL AIR, Md. (AP) -- A Roman Catholic priest from Towson is on three years of probation following his conviction for indecent exposure at a Harford County adult bookstore.

The Baltimore Sun reports that the Rev. Mark Bullock was sentenced Wednesday. The court suspended a 360-day jail term and ordered Bullock to complete a rehabilitation program he began in February. He was also fined $250.

If Bullock completes the rehab program, the court may consider a defense request for probation before judgment. That would clear the conviction from his record.

Deputies say Bullock exposed himself in a theater at Bush River Books & Movies in January. The Archdiocese of Baltimore dismissed him from his work at the Church of the Immaculate Conception shortly afterward ordered him to get a psychological evaluation.
