A teacher sexually abused a 15-year-old boy in a church in the USA

Washington (USA) – The arrest of 26-year-old teacher Regan Gray in Washington, USA, for sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy in an Arkansas church has shocked many. Gray, who had been volunteering as a teacher at Little Rock Immanuel Baptist Church since 2020, was granted bail by the court. The revelation of the abuse came to light when the victim came forward.

The boy’s parents complained to the church pastor after seeing numerous messages from the teacher on his mobile phone. The teacher was suspended after the investigation, which revealed that the teacher had sent nude pictures to the boy.

A church leader told the Federal Bureau of Investigation that the teacher admitted to having sexual relations with the boy in an investigation back in 2023.

Such incidents beg the question as to why the church doesn’t make a strong effort to prevent children from being sexually abused on their premises ?#abusedhard #America #Churches pic.twitter.com/WoXrwZQmcH
