A Baptist pastor in Virginia has allegedly confessed to sending more than a dozen sexual images to a teenage boy, according to court documents.
Kenny Baldwin, 46, has been the lead pastor of Crossroads Baptist Church since 2011. Earlier this week, he was charged with 13 counts related to sending naked pictures of himself to a teenage boy. The two met while Baldwin came to the young man’s church to give a sermon and the two exchanged phone numbers afterwards. ABC27 reports:
“According to court documents, Baldwin had confessed to two different people, who then reported the confession to Troopers. When Baldwin was interviewed on June 12 at the Pennsylvania State Police York station, he allegedly admitted to sending the pictures.
Baldwin faces 13 charges that include felony counts of unlawful contact with a minor and corruption of minors, and misdemeanor counts of indecent exposure, open lewdness and corruption of minors.”
Baldwin is married and has 5 children. He was released on an $80,000 bail, with a preliminary hearing occurring on Aug 10.

He WAS married. I'm sure he'll be divorced in a minute.
The hell is wrong with people.
That’s pretty gay
Them again…
Pastor, I mean.
What are the odds that he is a registered Democrat and was soon to run for elected office. Guarentee if someone really investigated his finances, he was subsidized by Act Blue or some hidden Democratic donors. These “pastors” get paid on the size of their “congregations” and behave as old fashioned ward leaders. The more votes they deliver, the more they are paid.
I guess he listens to AC/DC. Better zoom in on Highway to Hell.
"It would be better for him if a millstone were put around his neck and he be thrown into the sea than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin." (Luke 17:2)
Why do writers not understand that pictures don't wear clothes so there's no such thing as a nude or naked picture? It should be "sending pictures of himself nude (or naked)."
Surprised he didn’t use the “someone hacked my phone” excuse.
“Love is love,” I guess. Right, faggies?
Reason 5,000 I don’t like organized religion.
Came here to say that. So many perverts today, it’s disgusting. I suspect some get into ministry to try to stop themselves, but it doesn’t work.
Might as well blame a nearby tree. Religion, organized or unorganized, did not make this happen. Identify your target properly or you’ll never hit it.
What is wrong with men?
Those darned ‘Interns’, again!
I think it’s the cover of authority or trust. So they work here or as teachers, day care workers, police officers, etc or within a family where they have a role. Predators look for cover.
