Supporters of the Rev. Uriel Ojeda were rewarded for waiting in the darkness Monday as the Catholic priest posted bail and was released from the Sacramento County Main Jail.
The Rev. Uriel Ojeda, at center holding a bag, was released just before 10 p.m. from Sacramento County Main Jail. His attorney, Jesse Ortiz, beside him, worked to free the accused priest on bail.
The crowd that gathered in hope of seeing the Rev. Uriel Ojeda freed on bail Monday from the Sacramento jail sang songs in Spanish and floated balloons in support of the accused priest.
