An Arkansas pastor has been sentenced to 110 years in prison for charges related to the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse materials.
The Pike County Sheriff’s Department announced on Monday that an Arkansas pastor has been sentenced to 110 years in prison.
The man — James Vincent Henry who worked as a pastor in Delight, Arkansas — pleaded guilty to 11 child sexual abuse material charges. As result, Henry received 10 years per count for a total of 110 years in prison.
Back in October of 2024, Henry was initially arrested for his involvement in the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse materials.
According to reports, on September 25, a search warrant was executed by Arkansas State Police after they received two cyber tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that were made on both Snapchat and Kik.
After reviewing the digital evidence, a search warrant was obtained for Henry.
Reports showed that Henry was the pastor of the Crossroads Assembly of God Church in Delight. He previously served as a youth pastor at several churches, including Newsong Church in Centerton where he also served on the media team.
