Evidently the child abuse case featured pictures. Overall, it appears that the former elder investigated at least eight cases, at least two of which were molestation related. Here’s a bit more on one of them. The perpetrator went on to other churches to pastor until just before his death.

If you doubt that it’s important to bring in authorities, and that it’s important to raise a flag when a pastor does this kind of things, read the articles.
