Pastor's Convictions For Corrupting Minors Dismissed

Christian Chronicle reports on a March 18, 2019 decision by a Pennsylvania trial court judge vacating a long-time Church of Christ youth minister's convictions for corruption of minors and indecent exposure.  Clyde Brothers, Jr. had been sentenced to five years in prison for showing pornographic movies and performing lewd acts in front of church boys. Granting a post-trial motion, however, the court held that the state's statute of limitations barred the prosecution.
