Former youth pastor Andrew Thomas was sentenced to 15 years in prison after a convicting for criminal sexual assault. Thomas preyed on young boys via the internet.
Those charges alleged he utilized a scheme in which he identified himself on Internet social networking sites and in text messages or e-mails as a female and used the personas to entice local minor-age boys, sending them pornographic female images and in return soliciting pornographic images of the young boys.
Thomas was a special case. I think he was capable of much worse. I’m happy he was caught and put behind bars.
Pastor Thomas worked at the Rossville Church of Christ. Don’t bother checking the website. There is not a word on it about the case.
