ALBION, N.Y. — Opening statements were heard Wednesday morning in Orleans County Court in the sexual abuse case involving a former Niagara County Pastor.
There was some emotional testimony Wednesday from two of the alleged victims in the case against Roy Harriger. Both of them gave an account to jurors of what they said happened to them while growing up as children in Lydonville. At the time of the alleged acts, the children were under the age of 10.
Harriger is accused of sexually abusing three young victims between January 2000 and December 2002. He’s charged with sexual conduct against a child and incest.
Harriger was serving as a pastor at Wesleyan Church in Lyndonville at the time. The incidents were reported to have taken place at his home.
