I thought you said he was arrested. If he was arrested for child molestation it would be revealed by a background check necessary to work with children at the new church.
Was he arrested or not?
That’s right. A registered sex offender will not be allowed near children and if found again, will be imprisoned.
It is my understanding that at the first church is was arrested on a charge involving a minor and ended up pleading guilty to disorderly conduct. A background check would reveal any criminal activity, no? There’s no indication second church conducted a background check.
I understand these things happen and the system does not always work properly.
