LOS ANGELES -- A pastor and two members of a California church pleaded guilty Monday to charges of beating and threatening a 13 year old boy's life, even forcing him to dig his own grave, KTLA reports.

Lonny Lee Remmers, 56, Nicholas James Craig, 24, and Darryll Duane Jeter Jr., 30, tortured the boy in the church-run group home where he lived, according to a witness report in affidavits for search warrants.

According to KTLA, the men drove the victim to a Califronia desert and forced him to dig his own grave. They then made him get in the grave and threw dirt on him in an attempt to scare the boy.
