Through their investigation, the Rainsville Police Department learned that Wukmer had been a children’s minister in Ohio before moving to Alabama. The Rainsville Police Department says that it is unaware of any similar misconduct while he was in the state of Ohio.

Arrest him, keep him in general population at the county jail and his rehabilitation will promptly commence.

They always gravitate into jobs that give easy access to children , usually in some form of a “trusted role”.

I wonder why he moved to Alabama? Was he aware someone was on to him in Ohio? The Ohio PD seemed to know nothing.

I wonder how much negative information he had on James Comey and John Brennan.

When a preacher makes a sudden cross country move, you know he’s running from something.

And this man calls himself a Christian.

Not certain this is same man but there are some similarities; would hate to have same name as perp and be misidentified

There is/was a “Steve Wilmer” on Facebook who graduated HS in 1975 so the age almost matches age 66 now; face in young photo resembles perp, and Facebook says he studied Elementary Education in addition to Bible/Theology at Midwestern Baptist College, Class of 1983.

He went on to get Master (SIC) in Pastorial (SIC) at Andersonville Theological Seminary

He wrote:
“I am a born again independent Baptist Preacher. I am a widower. I am involved in Ministering to families young people.

Based on his college’s Statement of Faith, I assume he was taught and believed “Once Saved, Always Saved” theology.

Glad he was arrested.

However,

“after a tip lead to the discovery”

Someone needs an editor.
