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.
