Are the sacraments administered by a priest convict still valid?

Recently the pastor for our parish committed some crimes, was convicted and sent to jail; of course he resigned as a priest. Do all the sacraments I have been receiving from him still count?
 
Hi,

A priest’s state of soul does not affect the validity of the sacraments he has administered. So yes, the sacraments you received from him are valid.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
