BIRMINGHAM, Alabama – Mack Allen Davis, a former youth pastor at Lakeside Baptist Church, faces sex abuse charges in Jefferson, Cherokee and St. Clair counties after two men stepped forward to say Allen molested them 30 years ago.
Davis, 73, whose last address was in Athens, faces 15 charges from the three counties, according to court records and court officials. Davis is currently being held in the Jefferson County Jail on $150,000 bond.
Davis on Tuesday appeared before Jefferson County Circuit Judge Teresa Pulliam in an attempt to get his bond reduced. The judge said she wanted to see information about Davis’ heart condition before making a decision on bond.
Davis was first arrested by Cherokee County authorities April 2 on seven counts of second-degree sexual abuse and one count of attempted sodomy. He was released on bond, but he was arrested again on May 20 based on a Jefferson County grand jury indictment.
