Welcome to H&C,,, where I aggregate news of interest. Primary topics include abuse with "the church", LGBTQI+ issues, cults - including anti-vaxxers, and the Dominionist and Theocratic movements. Also of concern is the anti-science movement with interest in those that promote garbage like homeopathy, chiropractic and the like. I am an atheist and anti-theist who believes religious mythos must be die and a strong supporter of SOCAS.

Youth pastor sentenced to 20 years - Herald Bulletin: Local News
A former Vincennes youth pastor was sentenced Monday to the maximum 20 years in prison after pleading guilty last month to sexual misconduct with a minor.
Derrick “Duke” Hampsch, 34, was arrested in Madison County last September. At the same time, a charge of sexual misconduct with a minor, a Class B felony, was filed in Knox County after a relative of the teenage girl reported the alleged incidents to Vincennes police.
Hampsch admitted to having sexual contact with a minor in an Anderson church five years ago while working as the youth pastor for First Baptist Church in Vincennes.
On Monday, Madison Circuit Court Division 3 Judge Thomas Newman Jr. sentenced Hampsch to serve the entire 20-year sentence following a hearing that lasted several hours.
A September trial date has been set for the sexual misconduct charge in Knox County.
