Youth pastor gets 89 years

Andrew Belant was a Eureka California youth pastor. He was sentenced to 89 years to life. Essentially a death sentence for the 26 year old serial pedophile.

Belant was convicted last month of 17 felony charges, including molestation related to four victims, ages nine to 13, as well as child pornography possession.

A photo recovered from Belant's external hard drive shows him engaging in sexual activity with another boy, but authorities haven't been able to identify him. Prosecutors say Belant refused a potential plea deal in exchange for his cooperation in naming other victims.

I bet he’s still a Christian because… you know, he believes and all.
