An Osage County jury found 62 year-old Creth Hopkins guilty Thursday of three counts of felony child sexual abuse and one count of lewd molestation. Hopkins is the former pastor of Osage Indian Baptist Church and for the past seven years has pastored a non-denominational church he started at the Osage County Housing Authority’s Cedar Ridge housing development. The verdict came after a two-day trial. During the trial, jurors heard taped police interviews in which Hopkins admitted to some of the alleged acts with a teenage girl.
