VANCEBURG | A former Vanceburg pastor charged with sexual abuse pleaded not guilty in Lewis County Circuit Court Friday.
Duncan Aker, 63, of Greensburg, Ind., was charged with five counts of sexual abuse and four counts of sodomy earlier this month after a Lewis County jury handed down an indictment against him in April.
According to a representative with the Greensburg, Ind., Police Department, Aker was arrested on May 3, on a warrant from Vanceburg, and was extradited to Kentucky not long after, but no other information was available.
“The investigation into the incidents took about three to four months,” Kentucky State Police Master Trooper Joe Veeneman said. “Then we had to wait on the extradition from Indiana.”
