Parrish Terry of Craig was sentenced in Moffat County Court on Monday. Judge Schneider sentenced Terry to three years of supervised probation and 100 hours of community service. He also has to complete anger management treatment and any other treatment recommended by adult probation.

The District Attorney’s office asked for 45 to 90 days of jail time to go along with probation. Judge Schneider sentenced Terry to 90 days but suspended the jail sentence upon the successful completion of the terms of his probation. If he successfully completes the terms of the probation, he will not have to serve jail time.

Terry was a pastor at a church in Craig, when he was convicted by a jury in March. Parrish Terry was convicted of Assault in the Second Degree which is a class four felony, and assault in the Third Degree, which is a misdemeanor. The crimes happened in Craig on June 15, 2025.
