LEWIS COUNTY, Kentucky – Former Greensburg minister Duncan D. Aker Jr. was sentenced in Lewis (Kentucky) Circuit Court Friday to one year in jail on five counts of first degree sexual abuse.

Aker pleaded guilty to five counts of first degree sexual abuse on March 4 as part of a plea agreement in which charges of four counts of first degree sodomy were dropped.

Under the terms of the agreement, Aker, 64, will serve a year in jail (with credit for time served) and then be on probation for five years. He will also have to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life and complete a sex offender treatment program.

With time served, that will make him eligible for release about May 3.
