Quincy church youth leader sentenced to 12 years for sexual abuse
Quincy church youth leader sentenced to 12 years for sexual abuseA Quincy man who was a youth leader at Hope Lutheran Church in Quincy was sentenced Friday to 12 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.
Court records show that 22-year-old Isaiah Mikkelson was sentenced to 6 years each for two counts of criminal sexual abuse of a victim between 13 and 18 years old.
Mikkelson must serve the two sentences consecutively and will receive 4 days credit on each count for time served.
In September, Mikkelson pleaded guilty to two of the seven total charges against him. One count of criminal sexual assault, two charges of child pornography, and two other counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse were dropped as part of the plea agreement.
