A Former Omaha Archdiocese Chancellor Is Charged With Theft
A former chancellor for the Roman Catholic Church’s Archdiocese of Omaha who is already charged with two felony counts has been charged with a new count of theft after authorities say he stole more than $100,000 from a church in Sarpy County.
The Rev. Michael Gutgsell was charged with the third count last week and faces a preliminary hearing on the new charge on Feb. 8, the Omaha World-Herald reported.
Gutgsell was first arrested in October and charged with attempted theft and abuse of a vulnerable adult.
