Yersson Solarte, 33, was arrested by the Prince William County Police Department in Virginia on Wednesday, May 7, during a coordinated effort with Florida's Sanford Police Department (SPD). Authorities believe Solarte was on a "family trip" at the time of his arrest. He has since been charged with sexual battery of a minor and lewd and lascivious molestation.

That’s just sick that his warped mind could even go there.

……Solarte “expressed his love for her,” before hugging her sister and trying to make her jealous.

I really wish we could begin to change the language used in these articles from "pastor" to "man posing as a pastor". Whether the man held a degree in theology might also be helpful, but not always. There are so many people these days pretending just so they can gain access to the most vulnerable and trusting.

He has shown us what he is. There are only two ways to prevent there being more victims, as we know his sentence will be ridiculously short.
