Boulder police have ticketed VineLife’s senior pastor Walt Roberson for failing to report alleged sexual abuse of a child by his son, Jason Allen Roberson, a youth pastor at the church.
Walt Roberson was issued the summons on Nov. 25, according to Boulder police spokeswoman Kim Kobel. Four other church officials — Executive Pastor Robert Phillip Young, 65, Pastor Luke Michael Humbrecht, 30, and church elders Edward Charles Bennell, 65, and Warren Lloyd Williams, 66 — were also ticketed back in early November, but Walt Roberson was out of the country at the time and so could not be issued a summons, Kobel said.
Jason Roberson, 35, is facing six felony charges in relation to the alleged abuse after Danielle DesGeorges, 24, went to police in April and told investigators that she and Roberson had an inappropriate relationship that began when she was 15 and continued for seven years.
