A well-respected high-ranking Catholic priest has been suspended by the Stockton Catholic Diocese after he allegedly sent unsolicited pictures of his penis to the church pool and landscape maintenance man who complained — only to be fired.

Monsignor Larry McGovern, the pastor of Presentation Parish in Stockton, is being accused of sexual harassment in a lawsuit filed by the unidentified father of two, who is also a church parishioner, against the church, reports FOX40.

“It’s extremely disturbing that the person’s who is head of this parish would be sending text with photographs of his exposed genitals,” attorney Vince Finaldi said before adding. “Someone’s who’s engaging in that type of conduct has very, very serious credibility issues and issues with judgement.”
