Salt Lake City pastor charged with sex-related felonies
A pastor for the Church of God of Prophecy in Salt Lake City faces felony charges for allegedly exposing himself on the Internet and asking a police officer posing as a minor sexually explicit questions.
The pastor faces four third-degree felony charges of attempted dealing in material harmful to a minor after an investigation by the Utah Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task force.
The 67-year-old was in a chat room when he asked the questions and exposed himself on a Web camera, according to a news release from the Utah Attorney General's Office. This occurred several times, including once while he was using the Internet while visiting his wife in the hospital, the release said.
ICAC investigators confronted the man about the online conversations, the attorney general's office said. The pastor has agreed to surrender at the Salt Lake County Jail next week.
