This is the Face of a Church Leader Arrested for Child Pornography

[phands]

Another true xtian caught abusing children...and not a catholic for a change....

A music ministry leader at a church in Oregon was arrested on charges of accessing and distributing child pornography, and police are looking into whether there was child abuse at the church.


Edward Samuel Thompson, who led the music program at Christ Fellowship Church in Eugene, Oregon, was arrested at his home for accessing, receiving, possessing, and distributing child porn. The FBI says he is a “long-time member” and music teacher at Christ Fellowship, and that he “still plays on a volleyball team” for the church. While he is currently in jail, the FBI says they are looking into what else he may have done.

The FBI offered this advice to concerned community members:
Parents who have a child who has come in contact with Thompson should let that child know that Thompson has been arrested for inappropriate behavior. Parents should tell that child that if Thompson did, or said, anything inappropriate to the child to let the parents know. If a child discloses an incident that did happen to him or her or that the child observed an inappropriate incident happen to someone else, the parent should not ask the child detailed questions about the incident. Instead, please contact Eugene Police Detective Chris Mackey…

That doesn’t necessarily mean Thompson acted on his perversion, but law enforcement officials believe it was at least possible. Given the stories we’ve heard from the Catholic Church and elsewhere about child sexual abuse by church leaders, we can’t even say it’s all that shocking anymore. The question is what other church leaders knew, when they knew it, and what they plan to do about it to protect children moving forward.
