A former Alabama pastor has been charged with sexual abuse and sodomy after two adults came forward accusing him of molesting them as children.
Ex-Birmingham-area pastor, Rev. Jay Strickland, has since bonded out of jail following last month’s charges of two counts of sexual abuse and one count of first-degree sodomy.
An investigation into the alleged abuse was launched in April after a man came forward accusing Strickland of abusing him as a child.
Shortly after, Jefferson County sheriff’s Sgt. Jack Self told AL.com that they tracked down a woman who echoed similar child abuse allegations from years ago.
