	Kitsap County Pastor Sought after Abuse Alleged By Brian Alexander Seattle Times October 27, 2007 http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2003977758_pastor27m.html Kitsap County sheriff's detectives are looking for a church pastor who is suspected of sexually abusing underage members of his congregation, according to the Sheriff's Office. Police suspect the pastor of the South Colby church of two counts of child rape, and they think there may be additional victims. Some of the victims may now be adults, according to the Sheriff's Office. Sheriff's deputies served a search warrant on the pastor's home Friday, according to the news release. The pastor was not at the residence or at the church. The Seattle Times generally does not name suspects who have not been charged. Deputies, who say they have probable cause to arrest the pastor, believe he is on the run with his spouse. He is driving a red 2003 Hummer. The Sheriff's Office began its investigation last weekend when one of the victims, who is now an adult, called 911 and reported the alleged crime, according to the news release. Detectives believe that the pattern of sexual abuse has continued. Brian Alexander: 206-464-2026 or balexander@seattletimes.com
