A former LDS bishop charged with sexually abusing two underage males
in his ward pleaded guilty to his crimes Wednesday in Fourth District
Court.
The defendant, Erik Hughes of Mapleton, entered guilty
pleas to two second-degree felonies of forcible sexual abuse and one
third-degree felony of tampering with a witness. Hughes, 51, pleaded to
what he was originally charged with. No charges were reduced as a part
of his plea arrangement.
Hughes’ attorney, John Allan, told Judge
Thomas Low that as a part of the agreement, no other charges in relation
to the allegations of abuse can be leveled against Hughes.
