A once prominent member of a local church was arraigned, Tuesday, after being accused of molesting a young relative.

The 68-year-old former elder of Community of Christ Church in Ann Arbor was accused of sexually abusing a relative when the child was between 7 and 11-years-old.

Police have been investigating for the past two months after the victim, who is now 15-years-old, came forward.
