A Baptist minister in Hales Corners has been charged with sexually molesting children in Arizona.
The Rev. Thomas Chantry, 46, served as a pastor at Miller Valley Baptist Church in Prescott, Arizona.
He is accused of molesting the children between 1995 to 2001. One case involves a child under the age of 10.
The case caught the attention of the Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, including David Clohessy.
“He’s accused of molesting five kids, and common sense would suggest that there’s probably more. So we in SNAP think it’s important for people to spread the word,” Clohessy said.
One of his victims is now in his 30s and came forward with allegations that Chantry began molesting him in an Arizona church office when he was 9 or 10 years old.
