It appears that this story may be a complete fake. A search for the name of the defendant lists someone in Oklahoma, not Oregon. The face is also entirely different. Let this be a warning to others, do not believe everything you read. Thank you, @devnull406@lemmy.world

Identified as Andrew Nyles Lackey, the pastor faces a litany of serious charges including multiple counts of rape, sodomy, and sexual abuse, all involving minors.
