WHEATLAND, CA – A Wheatland church pastor has confessed to engaging in underage sex with a 16-year-old girl, said a Yuba County sheriff’s official.
“He has confessed to an ongoing sexual relationship with the 16-year-old victim over a period of approximately a year,” Yuba County Sheriff Steven Durfor said.
Read said the sheriff’s department was tipped off to the allegations on Tuesday by a report made to Wichita, Kansas police regarding suspect Brian Gray. Gray’s son said a relative of his father’s wife called Wichita police.
The ensuing investigation revealed Gray, 51, and the teen had been in a sexual relationship for approximately one year and it began at Anchor Baptist Church in Wheatland late last spring, Read said. There were additional sexual encounters in multiple other locations as well, according to the investigation.
