How a Sabrina Carpenter song led to a priest’s demotion for mishandling church funds

A Brooklyn priest allowed Sabrina Carpenter to film a music video inside his church last year. The ensuing controversy kicked off an investigation that uncovered what the diocese calls a "pattern of serious violations" of its policies.

Officials say Monsignor Jamie Gigantiello was disciplined for mishandling $1.9 million in parish funds. He faced scrutiny last year for letting Carpenter film a music video at his Brooklyn church.
