Rev. David Pinckney is a New Hampshire evangelical Christian pastor who took paroled child killer Raymond Guay into his home over the weekend of March 15, 2009. Guay must spend his 3 year parole in New Hampshire, but had been forced out of Manchester and Concord before Pinckney took him into his home. The move has caused outrage in his small town of Chichester.Boston Herald: NH pastor explains decision to take in child killer (March 16, 2009)
Raymond Guay's Crimes

Guay has a long career of violence, including the murder of a 12-year-old boy in 1973, kidnapping an elderly couple during a prison break in 1982, and the stabbing of a fellow inmate in 1991. Pinckney says that Guay began to change his ways after meeting the elderly couple he kidnapped in 1981, and that he became a "follower of Jesus" in 1993 and repents his ways.Concord Monitor: I'm sorry, but I had to give Guay a chance (March 17, 2009)
Conditions of Stay

Pinckney was asked by a prison chaplain in Concord if he would consider taking in the homeless convict. Pinckney hosted a dinner for him on March 12, and, after discussing it with the family, allowed Guay to stay in their basement for a period of two months, until the man can find a place to live and a job.Union Leader: Pastor tells why he took in killer (March 16, 2009)
Federal probation officers will supervise the release, and Pinckney established additional rules for Guay. He cannot be alone; he cannot leave the house except under supervision. Local police will be informed every time he comes into town.Union Leader: Pastor tells why he took in killer (March 16, 2009)
