BARRINGTON — A youth mentor at Grace Bible Church here is accused of sexually assaulting a boy he met while volunteering with the church, Camden County Prosecutor Warren W. Faulk announced today.
Samuel Bangs, 23, of Bellmawr, was charged with sexual assault, endangering the welfare of a minor and two counts of criminal sexual conduct.
Authorities allege he engaged in “illegal sexual conduct” with the boy, who was under age 16, “over the past two months,” a statement released by the Prosecutor’s Office said.
Some of the encounters occurred at public parks, investigators said, adding that Bangs was no longer a mentor to the boy when the assaults took place.
