STUART, Fla. – Federal authorities arrested a former The Grace Place youth pastor Monday in Ocala on a charge of enticing a minor to engage in a sexual relationship.
Officials say, 24-year-old Jeffrey Brian Mobley, formely of Stuart, was arrested by a Marion County Sheriff around 8:30 a.m. at 11000 W SR 40.
Mobley appeared before a federal judge Monday during a first appearance, according to court records. He was ordered to be held in custody pending a detention hearing and preliminary examination on October 7.
