two Aurora-area parishes and accused of sexually abusing two children,
made his first formal court appearance Thursday after posting bond.
Arias, 49, who is listed with a High Street address in Aurora, was charged Feb. 10 with two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving children under the age of 13 between January 2009 and November 2014. Prosecutors allege Arias fondled the children at Sacred Heart Church in Aurora, as well as one of the youth's homes.
