Lindsey Whiteside, a 26-year-old former church youth leader and basketball coach from Mississippi, admitted to repeatedly sexually abusing a minor in her church’s youth group. Despite overwhelming evidence—including 64,000 text messages and incriminating letters — she was sentenced to just three years of house arrest and seven years of supervision, avoiding any prison time. Prosecutors and the victim’s family are furious, calling the sentence “an abomination of justice” and accusing the community of protecting a “pedophile sympathizer” because of Whiteside’s influential family ties. Law&Crime’s Chris Stewart is On the Case.
