A Maineville pastor accused of sexually abusing at least six children is pleading no contest to some of the charges.

Claude "Steven" Harmon will be tried for rape and gross sexual imposition in April.

On Tuesday, the 47-year-old pastor of Maineville Baptist Church pled no contest to 11 other similar charges stemming from incidents that allegedly took place in his Maineville home as well as at the church.
