CORONA – (INT) – The director and two residents of the Heart of Worship group home are accused of torturing and abusing a 13-year-old boy.
Police say the boy’s mother took him to the home for guidance. Pastor Lonnie Remmers allegedly ordered the two men to drive him to the desert to ‘scare’ him. After arriving in the Barstow area, the pair threatened to kill the boy and forced him to dig a grave.
They returned to Remmers’ Corona home for Bible study. Instead, the youth was physically assaulted.
