ASHEVILLE – A former church youth leader was sentenced to at least 14
years and four months in prison Wednesday after pleading guilty to
seven counts of indecent liberties with a child.

The charges against Leonard Smith date back 20 years and involve three
children. Three more serious charges, which were dropped in a plea
bargain, date to 1976.
David Clement, spokesman for the extended family that brought charges
against Smith, said he is pleased with the jail sentence.
“We knew him and his family for 30 years,” Clement said. “We trusted
him and we loved him. … You can’t undo love, but if anybody needs the
light turned on them, it’s a pedophile.”
Smith, 53, was music director and worked with the youths of Sycamore
Temple Church of God in Christ in Asheville.
