7 News Belize
The story of a pastor from a church in Inglewood California who is accused of sexually abusing a 13 year old is making news in Belize tonight.
And that’s because 50 year old Gordon Solomon used to teach at a number of high schools in Belize. We have received reports that he was a teacher at a number of Belize City High Schools in the 80’s and early 90’s. It’s important because according to multiple accounts – he allegedly did the same thing in Belize – preying on teenaged girls. He was never charged – but we have spoken to persons who insist that he was a known predator.
And while he was never charged in Belize, Solomon faces nine felony counts in California court. He is being held in lieu of $3-million bail.
According to news reports from Los Angeles, Solomon met the now 14-year-old victim at Christ’s Community Church, where he is the pastor. The alleged abuse started in June 2010 and didn’t end until Sunday, according to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.
