The jury is in deliberation in the trial of former Pella Pastor Patrick Edouard. Edouard was charged with multiple counts of sexual abuse and sexual exploitation by a counselor. The prosecution attempted to prove Edouard was acting as a counselor, and took advantage of his position as a pastor, while the defense attempted to prove that the women did not have any mental illness that would require a counselor. Edouard took the stand earlier this week, admitting that he had affairs with the women, but was not acting as counselor. KNIA/KRLS will bring you more information when a verdict is reached.
