WAVERLY, Iowa — A former pastor is scheduled to report Friday morning to the Bremer County Jail, first stop on his way to prison.
Dennis Brown, 67, of Eldora, pleaded guilty in June to third-degree sexual abuse, admitting illegal contact with a 15-year-old boy. On Tuesday, the court ordered Brown to serve up to 10 years in prison but suspended a $1,000 fine.
The boy and Brown met online, according to court documents, and then in person in Waverly. The teenager’s family found out, however, and reported the incident to authorities.
