	Former Youth Group Leader Pleads Guilty to Sex Abuse KPTV December 9, 2011 http://www.kptv.com/story/16223768/former-youth-group-leader-pleads-guilty-to-sex-abuse A former youth pastor who formerly pleaded not guilty to child molestation and sexual misconduct with a minor has changed his plea to guilty. On Thursday, Jason Wolk pleaded guilty to one count of sexual misconduct with a minor and two counts of child molestation. Wolk used to lead a youth group at the Vancouver Wesleyan Church. That's where investigators say he met two of his victims. Between June and November of last year, investigators believe Wolk sexually abused two teen boys from his youth group at the Vancouver Wesleyan Church. One woman who goes by "Sally" is related to both victims and says that some of the abuse happened on a camping trip. "When he went camping, he not only victimized my grandson; he took my grandson first, and then the next week he took my son and he didn't get as far with my grandson, so he made my son undress and sleep in his boxers in the wintertime," Sally told Fox 12. Investigators also believe some of the abuse happened during private mentoring meetings. Sally is relieved that he changed his plea but said that the months leading up to the Thursday court appearance were nearly unbearable. "I don't think that any parent or any victim should have to wait a year or longer than a year to watch the person who victimized their child and grandchild to have to wait that long and go through the torture that I've seen," said Sally. Wolk will be sentenced on Jan. 6.
