Tony Alamo: Evangelist sentenced to 175 years in prison
Evangelist Tony Alamo was on Friday sentenced to 175 years in prison for taking underage girls across the state for sex.
Alamo, 75, was in July convicted on a 10 count federal indictment. He took five girls as brides in crimes that took place over a period of 10 years.
According to district judge Harry F. Barnes said Alamo used his status as a father figure and pastor to threaten the girls with the loss of their salvation.
