Granby pastor George Otis Johnston of the Grandview Valley North Church was bound over for trial on felony sex charges today following a preliminary hearing in Newton County Circuit Court.
This passage is taken from the account written by Marcus Kabel of Associated Press:
A Newton County judge Monday bound over George Otis Johnston, 63, for trial after testimony from a 20-year-old woman who alleges Johnston, the pastor of her close-knit church commune, molested her in his trailer home when he was supposed to be tutoring her in algebra.
"He told me I needed to become one of his angels," the woman told the court in a preliminary hearing Monday.
Johnston is charged with nine felony counts of statutory sodomy and child molestation. His arraignment was scheduled for Oct. 26.
The woman said Johnston would put his hands inside her clothes to touch her genitals and breasts and kiss her with his tongue, which he called "angel kisses."
