SHEPHERDSVILLE, KY (WAVE) – A former church leader is out on bond after police arrested him for having sexual relations with a teenager. Investigators said the abuse happened at the Trinity Life Center Church and the man’s home.
Bryan Dockery, 26, faces numerous sexual abuse charges including sodomy after allegedly having sexual contact with a 15-year-old boy. Shepherdsville police told WAVE 3 the sex crimes began in August 2011 and continued until June of 2012.
Trinity’s pastor declined to comment or go on-camera when WAVE 3’s crew contacted him and the congregation Sunday.
According to police documents, Dockery worked as the youth director at the church where the boy attended. Church personnel who answered a phone called Sunday confirmed Dockery is no longer with the church.
