“The evidence will show that Father Carlos did not ‘floss’ with a student's hair or ‘growl’ among other completely false and repulsive accusations,” said Burke.
A priest has been arrested after allegedly using a 13-year-old girl’s hair as floss while waiting to see a relic, police said.
Carlos Martins was detained Monday following the November 21 incident, when officers arrived at St. Paul the Apostle Church in Joliet, Illinois, in the afternoon, police said in a statement.
He’s reported to have asked about her hair before grabbing it and making a flossing motion in his mouth using the hair, according to the police statement.
