FT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) – Prosecution wrapped up testimony Thursday evening in the trial of a former youth pastor accused of sexually assaulting young children.

Jeffrey London, 50, is accused of molesting four boys who are now grown men. He is charged with 27 counts of child abuse.

Prosecutors chose cellular forensics expert Konstantinos Dimitrelos as their final witness. He was hired to analyze London’s phone records.

Prosecutors are trying to show that London sent provocative text messages to the alleged victims.
Dimitrelos showed the jury text messages he said came from inside London’s home. One of the alleged victims asks in a text message,”Can I play call of duty later?” London replies in a text message “Of course u can. Can I (expletive) while u play?”

In another set of messages to one of the alleged victims London allegedly wrote,”You need to get a bath, get naked and text me when I can come make you feel good! “
