A former Indiana youth pastor was sentenced to 20 years in prison for molesting 11- to 13-year-old boys for years, court officials said.The man, Scott Christner, 46, who had previously served as a youth group leader for First Baptist Church in Goshen, pleaded guilty in November to several child molesting charges.An Elkhart County judge sentenced him Wednesday to three nine-year sentences for felonies, ordering him to serve 20 of those years in prison, with seven suspended.
Christner’s attorney, who could not be immediately reached for comment Thursday, had argued for probation. One victim wrote about Christner’s “Double life, pretending to be a kind, giving man, while also molesting kids,” WNDU reported.
