Cortney T. Andrew is a local leader in the Trenton Church of Latter Day Saints in Utah. He recently pleaded guilty to sexting a minor in his congregation.
Intriguingly, a local media said this happened several years ago which to me sounds like at least a decade ago. This happened in 2021.
Andrew was serving as a counselor with two other church leaders who oversaw the operations of the church. The victim told Cache County Sheriff’s deputies that she began communicating with Andrew for counseling. Their communication became sexual. He was grooming her for sex (rape.)
The victim’s mother reported it to the bishop who removed him from his post.
He was sentenced to sixty day with work release and two year of probation. He will be added to the sex offender registry.
