A former Vincennes Youth pastor has pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct with a minor.

The plea was made in Madison County in connection with an incident where Duke Hampsh admitted to having sexual contact with a minor in an Anderson, Indiana church five years ago.  Hampsh was working as the youth pastor for the 1st Baptist Church in Vincennes at the time of the incident.   Hampsh is still facing a sexual misconduct charge in Knox County and has a September trial date in that case.

As part of the guilty plea, Hampsh could spend up to 6 to 10 years in jail.
