The charges are the same ones filed against Lambert Dec. 3 in McDonald County Circuit Court, but this will enable the process to bypass a preliminary hearing and go directly to the trial court, according to the article in today's Joplin Globe:
Prosecutor Janice Durbin said the grand jury on Friday handed down four counts of second-degree child molestation, three counts of second-degree statutory sodomy and one count of sexual abuse against Raymond Lambert, 52, pastor of Grand Valley Independent Baptist Church. Lambert is accused of sexually abusing two teenage girls several times between February 1995 and April 2004, according to court documents.
