KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Johnson County, Kansas jury on Tuesday found a former Christian school leader not guilty on several charges of sex crimes against children.

After receiving the case against Dennis Creason Monday, the jury deliberated most of Tuesday before finding Creason not guilty.

Creason was facing six counts of aggravated indecent liberties involving five children.

His defense attorney told 41 Action News on Tuesday that he was happy with how the jury considered the evidence.
