Just checked out his website. He is an acts 2:38 apostolic. So sad.

I agree with someone who posted a comment on the news website ... 1) the lady waits 3 months to notify police about it; 2) no evidence other than her word versus his; 3) repeat the first two...

It does sound like the accusation of a woman scorned, as someone commented. I'd be careful and not rush to judge this man before more facts are known or evidence is presented.

I agree. 3 months is a loooong time to wait to report something. I bet there is more to this story. Problem is even if he is innocent she has managed to ruin his reputation.

This is why a Pastor never counsels a female by himself, his wife should have been present.

True...but we don't know that there really was a meeting either.

Exactly. After the Duke Lacrosse fiasco and other false rape reports, there needs to be legal action and penalty filed against those who would file a false report and lie to police about this serious crime. And the penalty should be tough. There's too much of this that's been happening lately, and for the accused their reputation is completely ruined regardless while most of the time the woman gets off without so much as a warning.

Sad, sad position for the man and his entire church to be in. Given the prevalence of false reports and the circumstances of this case it is perhaps best to let the whole thing drag out before reaching a conclusion.
