INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - A 70-year-old man is facing charges after a 29-year-old man told police he was molested starting when he was 12 years old.

The 70-year-old man, Otis Bernard Jetter, was identified by the victim as a pastor at The Pilgrim Missionary Baptist Church in Indianapolis. Church officials said he has been removed from that position.

According to the man, Jetter would drive him to church in his van and engage in multiple sex acts when the boy was 12 and 13 years old. In some cases, the boy said he was given cash and told to keep it a secret.

After many years, the man said he came forward because he noticed Jetter transporting another boy to church. Then, the boy stopped coming to church. The man told police he worried that the same thing may have happened to the boy.

Jetter is charged with three counts of child molesting. He denied the allegations in an interview with police.
