A former priest who molested two boys in North Dakota in the 1990s has pleaded guilty.

Fernando Sayasaya was serving in Fargo and was assigned to Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church and St. Mary's Cathedral in Fargo at the time.

He then fled to the Philippines, where he remained for more than 20 years.

Sayasaya will be sentenced Oct. 1.

He could get up to 20 years in prison.
