A former minister and Mobile businessman, who prosecutors say molested children over a period of decades, is going to prison for the rest of his life.
Judge Charles Graddick sentenced Warner Price-Williams, 68, to eighty years in prison for four counts of sodomy.
All four counts involve the abuse of a boy who attended church with Williams, but prosecutors say there are dozens of other victims.
"His victims are probably almost countless," said Steve Giardini, an Assistant District Attorney.
During the sentencing hearing Judge Graddick told Williams "you've gotten away with it for many years. It's time you're removed from the public to protect kids from your disgusting conduct."
Williams, who was convicted of the sodomy charges in January, has managed to dodge jail time at least twice before. Several years ago, Williams was acquitted of similar charges against two family members. In 2006, he plead guilty to one count of sodomy, but his conviction was overturned in an appellate court.
The parents of one William's victims says Thursday's sentencing was long over due.

well reverend williams the bible says an eye for an eye and a toothe for a toothe.  I you take a life so shall your life be taken. It also says there shall be false prophets among us.  So live by and die by the bible..... you hid behind christianity to do your dirty deeds.  This is why I have respect for the homeless and prostitutes… they are suffering but have not harmed children.
