	Jury Acquits E. Idaho Youth Pastor in Sex Abuse Trial Associated Press, carried in KIFI KIFI June 29, 2007 http://www.localnews8.com/Global/story.asp?S=6730081 Pocatello, Idaho (AP) - An eastern Idaho youth pastor who faced two counts of lewd conduct with a minor and one count of sexually abusing a minor has been acquitted. A jury found Joshua J- Robinson, a pastor at Gate City Christian Church, not guilty on all counts following a 2-day trial. The 29-year-old Robinson was arrested in February. He faced up to life in prison for each lewd conduct charge and up to 15 years in prison for the sexual abuse charge. After his arrest, church officials elected to keep Robinson on staff, but shifted his job from active ministry to an administrative role. Officials say he will now return to his previous duties.
