Stover — A year after being acquitted of child molestation, the pastor of a small Baptist church in Stover is back in court.
Travis Smith, 42, was arraigned in Moniteau County this week on charges of rape, sexual abuse and sodomy. The charges stem from allegations relating to incidents that allegedly took place in 1998, 1999 and 2005. The allegations involve two different victims.
Smith is currently free on $70,000 bond. He is scheduled to return to court in November.
