TULSA, Oklahoma – The pastor of a Tulsa church is free on bond following his arrest Monday afternoon on a complaint of sexual assault of a minor child.
Police arrested Gregory Hawkins, 54, after a 15-year-old girl told officers she was about five months pregnant with his child.
Police have been investigating Gregory Hawkins since February. He is the pastor of the Zion Plaza Church and also is the owner of a daycare called the Zion Plaza Child Learning Center.
The girl says he began having sex with her last year when she was 14, and it happened at his daycare, his home, hotel rooms, and even in a parking lot at River Parks.
The girl told police she lived with him at his home for a time, beginning when she was 14, and that’s when the abuse started.
