LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A former youth pastor pleaded no contest Friday to molesting two girls at the church where he worked, officials from the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office said.

Jonathan Michael Macy, 31, entered his plea to one count of lewd acts upon a child under the age of 14 and admitted the special allegation of more than one victim, Deputy District Attorney Jon Hatami said.

An initial investigation began after there was a report of child molestation involving a girl and an employee at the Desert Christian School. A second victim was identified during the investigation.
Officials say Macy molested two girls, ages 11 and 12, during Sunday church services at Grace Chapel.
