Religion Youth Pastor Watch
posted by on August 15 at 9:08 AM
A grand jury has indicted a youth pastor of an upper Kanawha Valley church for allegedly sexually abusing a former student of the church’s affiliated school…. The indictment does not give many specifics except that Timothy C. Edmonds “did engage in or attempt to engage in an act of sexual intercourse with … Angel Green … while [she] … was in the care, custody and control of [Edmonds].” …
In an interview conducted by Trooper L.G. O’Bryan of the West Virginia State Police, records show Green, now 18, said on several occasions she’d been alone with Edmonds for long periods of time…. During these times alone, Edmonds would ask her to wear pantyhose, and would take pictures with her “dress pulled up and wearing the pantyhose in a sexually explicit position.” On at least one occasion, Green alleged she and Edmonds were lying on the floor and he rubbed his penis against her while she was wearing pantyhose.
In addition to being an alleged student-abusing panty-hose fetishist, Mr. Edmonds is also, according to another report in the West Virginia Record, a deadbeat dad.
A Kaufman County youth minister has been arrested after being accused of sexual assault of a child.
Joshua Neal Ponder, 32, was arrested last Friday in Mabank after a 16-year-old member of his congregation alleged that he was sexually assaulted by the man.
“The Mabank Police Department is continuing their investigative efforts to discover if there are any additional victims,” said Mabank Chief Kyle McAfee.
Kind of gives "Generation Church" a whole new meaning...
Is his name really Timothy C. Edmonds Edmonds, or is that a typo?
I only ask because the additional Edmonds just makes him seem fated for trouble.
And just think, for every person who comes forward there are countless others who don't for fear of upsetting ~God~, and their church.
disgusting slash tragic
I have a question. Does the investigation always begin after the arrest? So, all you actually have to do if you're pissed at an adult, church or no, pastor or not, is be under 18 and claim sexual assault? They just bust down the door, make a scene, tell the world about the alleged assault, and then investigation begins?
Dude I wish I did that to a number of people. Mothafuckaz!
^ that is so very disgusting, Mr. Troll
What is it about Jesus that makes all these people do these horrible things?
@6
Guilt.
Is it wrong to point out that "Angel Green" sounds like a porn star name?
Wait...was he a youth pastor or Dov Charney?
Are all religious people perverts?
Okay, do these guys just clean up really well, or what? Because these are the guys that I wish all perverts looked like, because then we could see them coming from a mile away. All the freaks you post on this Perv Watch give me the creeps just based on their appearance alone.
I wouldn't be alone in a room with any of these freaks, let alone leave my child in their care.
@6 It's called hypocrisy and people who claim they are something they are not!
I think you and I are headed for a wresting match where I get to pull your hair!
I'm good so I will win!
Poe at 4. Yes. You can be arrested on suspicion of a crime and then they investigate afterwards. Hearings can be had then continued many times for multiple reasons, one of which is that the prosecuting teams needs to continue investigating. If you can post bail, that's great. If not, you stay in the can.
MJ, if you pull my hair I'm calling the cops and telling them you touched my pantyhose.
