A former Louisiana sheriff could face life in prison after being convicted of sexual abuse, the Associated Press reported.
Jack Strain, who served as St. Tammany Parish sheriff for two decades, was charged with eight counts of sex crimes in 2019 against juvenile boys. He was found guilty on November 8 after the jury heard from five victims, whom Strain abused when they were children. Strain did not testify.
"You hurt me in so many ways," one accuser said. "You are a monster and a predator."
