“Daniel Savala, who preached for decades in an Assemblies of God-run college ministry, was sentenced to 30 years in prison without the possibility of parole.”
DISPUTED
The claim states Savala was sentenced to 30 years without parole. However, a web search result from MinistryWatch explicitly states he pleaded guilty in 2012 to third-degree sexual abuse of a minor and was sentenced to two years in prison, with all but 90 days suspended. While other sources confirm he is a sex offender and accused of abuse, the specific sentence of '30 years without parole' is contradicted by the MinistryWatch evidence.
