KALISPELL - A felony child pornography charge has been dropped against a former Evergreen priest, as the Flathead County Attorney's Office approved a deferred prosecution agreement last week.

Reverend Rudy Bullman was charged last February with felony sexual abuse of children, after a game console he sold to someone revealed nude pictures of underage boys on it.

Bullman could have faced 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine, but the deferred prosecution agreement means the charges will be dropped as long as he follows strict guidelines, outlined by the county, for the next three years.

Some of those include: participating in counseling, having his computer checked for pornography every six months, and not be in a position of power over any person under the age of 18.
