SHELBY COUNTY, TN –
(WMC) – A once trusted Hope Presbyterian Church music teacher is now at the center of a child sex investigation.
Officials are releasing very few details about the investigation, but they do say that it involves multiple agencies.
On Wednesday, Matthew Williams was charged with child sex abuse involving a family member. On Saturday, Hope Presbyterian Church found out and terminated Williams’ contract immediately.
Collierville police confirmed there is an investigation, but that is all they would say.
Williams taught piano lessons at Hope Music Academy at the church for almost a year.
