HARRIS COUNTY, Texas –
A lawsuit has been filed against a Houston area pastor accused of molesting and sexually assaulting at least six young girls.

The girls claim they ere as young as 9 years old when Radhames Severino repeatedly molested them up until they were 16 years old.

“They are visibly shaken, emotional, still scared and clearly confused. This was a church they were a major part of,” said attorney Derek Hollingsworth.

Radhames Severino is accused of targeting girls in his church from 2002 to 2012. Radhames Severino’s then-wife and co-pastor Rufino Medina Severino is also named in the lawsuit.
