Viagra-popping priest named Elvis accused of seducing parishioner in the confessional is sued for $25m

A Catholic priest in New York is being sued by one of his parishioners who claims he seduced her in the confessional box.

Judith Rodrigues-Lytwyn has launched a $25million lawsuit against Father Elvis Elano following their seven-month affair which ended when he told her about a nasty rash on his private parts which she contends came from another woman.

According to Rodrigues-Lytwyn, she was pouring her heart out about her sorrow over her divorce during confession when Father Elano told her he loved her.



The 50-year-old claims the priest told her: 'Your presence struck me like a thunderbolt.'

She says Father Elano began courting her and 'encouraging her to engage in a sexual liaison with him to assist her in overcoming her pain associated with her husband and because it was "ordained by God"'.

She said their affair, conducted in her house and in hotel rooms, lasted for seven months, with him ordering Viagra over the Internet.
