Wallin, who pleaded guilty to a meth conspiracy charge in 2013, has been in jail for 28 months. With time served, he will be behind bars for about three more years.

U.S. District Judge Alfred V. Covello sentenced Wallin to 65 months and also imposed supervised release of five years. He told Wallin he could "not ignore your decision to infect your community" with meth.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick Caruso told the judge that Wallin "abandoned his priestly life" and became a meth addict, associating with other meth users. He acknowledged Wallin's service as a priest and his charitable work and said he's "genuinely remorseful." But Wallin, who worked in Bridgeport and Danbury, was the "most culpable" as head of the meth ring, the prosecutor said. "He turned his apartment into a meth den for people to buy meth, to use meth," he said. "The public didn't know how he became a stone-cold drug dealer."
