SELBY, SD – A Walworth County jury found a former South Dakota pastor and educator not guilty of felony sex crimes.

Thirty-nine-year-old Timothy Thompson faced two counts of sexual contact with a child less than 16 years old. The jury acquitted him Friday.

Thompson, who now lives in California, pastored a church in Mobridge. He also worked as a teacher and administrator in South Dakota schools.
