A 71-year-old pastor of a Henrietta church has pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree sexual abuse.
Joseph Burress Sr. of Pittsford had been charged with two counts of abusing two people who were under the age of 14 at the time. Court documents said the two incidents were not related. Both incidents happened in Pittsford in 2014 and in 2020.
Burress had no comment on leaving court.
He’s the father of former Victory Baptist Church pastor Paul Burress, who pleaded guilty to sexual abuse for touching women in 2018.
