One young woman told a Clark County judge of “the man I hate the most” and the “foul, repulsive” things her pastor did to her. She recalled weeping on the floor of her shower, “afraid of everything.”
That man, Otis Holland, “damaged our family,” the woman’s mother said Wednesday.
Another told the judge he “robbed me of my innocence and my free will.”
The 59-year-old Holland, who prosecutors said created a church as an outlet to rape several minor girls, maintained his innocence.
Earlier this year, a jury convicted him on 15 counts, related to three young girls, including sexual assault of a minor and lewdness with a child.
