The South Dakota Supreme Court has upheld the sexual contact conviction of a Brookings pastor. Timothy Bariteau was convicted in June 2015 of rubbing his genitals against the buttocks of a 14-year-old girl on multiple occasions. Three justices upheld the conviction, but two justices dissented, saying the current legal definition of sexual conduct doesn't cover Bariteau's actions. SDPB's Victoria Wicks explains.
