Read the full article.A Tulsa pastor was arrested and charged with rape, child sex abuse and incest. He just resigned from his church over the weekend. According to an affidavit, Bertheophilus Maurice “Judge” Bailey Sr. began sexually assaulting his victim when she was a child. It went on to say the abuse got worse as she got older.
Until recently, Bailey was a reverend at St. Andrew Christian Church near 36th Street North and M.L.K. in north Tulsa. According to an affidavit, the abuse took place at home and started when the victim was in sixth grade.
Court records say, “It began with the defendant praying over (her) body and touching her.” Investigators said Bailey confessed to watching pornography involving incest and said, “he felt justified in acting out what was shown in the pornography because ‘it was what people do’.”
Hopefully this isn't what the OK school super isn't intending by forcing christianity in schools...
