LDS Church Bishop, Driving Instructor Sentenced To 6 Months For Sex Abuse

(Hillsboro, OR)  --  A Mormon church bishop and driver's education teacher is facing half a year behind bars after pleading guilty to half a dozen counts of third-degree sex abuse.  A judge sentenced Paul Douglas Burdick Friday to six months in jail followed by five years of formal probation with sex offender treatment.  Court records show Burdick was working as a driving instructor through Portland Community College in 2016 when two teenage girls said he touched them inappropriately.  A third student came forward with similar allegations last year.  Investigators then reached out to additional former students and found more than a dozen students had similar allegations against him.
