Curtis Allen, 48, of the 5200 block of Cuthbert Ave. faces 13 charges of sexual abuse of a minor, rape and sexual assault. Allen is a former deacon at Beth-El Temple Church of Christ, in the 3900 block of W. Rogers Ave. Police began investigating the case after the 16-year-old contacted the department last year, a spokesman for the department said. The boy, who was between 13 and 14 years old at the time he said he was molested, told police he was violated three times, usually between the morning and evening services, police said. Allen has no criminal history and is being held at Central Booking and Intake Center on $250,000 bail.
