What should be done with John Burt now? Sentencing is May 12.

Burt's family says it is impossible, considering Burk's age (66 years old) and his medical problems, e.g. diabetes, heart problems, that he could have committed the deeds of which he is accused. Burt also denies doing anything wrong.

Burt was found guilty of the charges. If he did it, it was a stupid thing to do. I am not convinced he did, but if so, not only is it wrong and a sin; but anyone should know, most fifteen year old girls cannot keep their mouth shut.
John having run Our Father's House for young girls would surely know this. Either way, he is a brother and if he has sinned in this area, we should not forsake him, but restore him to the faith.

John's defense lawyer, Nicole Ferry told the jury that her client was not guilty and that the girl has a history of lying and mental health problems. Tallahassee Democrat Fri., Apr. 02,
