The former Richmond Outreach Center (ROC) pastor took the stand on his behalf Tuesday morning.

Geronimo ‘Pastor G’ Aguilar began his testimony by describing his troubled childhood and how his mother was murdered by his step dad. Pastor G said he’d never been in trouble with the law before he was accused of sexually assaulting two girls when he was their youth pastor back in the late ’90s.

When asked about the sex abuse allegations, Pastor G denied ever doing anything inappropriate with the oldest of the alleged victims. Aguilar appeared very calm while on the stand, even looking directly at the jury as he spoke.

Pastor G said his wife wasn’t away on trips that alleged victims referred to when the alleged abuse happened. He said that the Child Protective Services investigation in Texas in the 1990s talked to the alleged victims family as well as himself, but law enforcement never got involved as CPS didn’t find any truth to the allegations.

Aguilar was then asked about the witness who testified to seeing him zip up his pants in the alleged victims’ bedroom. Aguilar responded to say that it was his bedroom with his wife, that it had a bathroom and he said sometimes the alleged victims watched television there.
