HOUSTON –
A former Channelview youth minister has been arrested in New York City on sexual assault of a child charges in Harris County, and investigators believe there may be more victims.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office said Jude Drayton Ramdial, a former youth minister at the Woodforest Worship Center Church of God, is accused of sexually assaulting a girl in the youth group in 2005. Deputies said the girl is now an adult and reported the assault to authorities recently.

Court documents state the girl alleges Ramdial kissed her on several occasions and sexually assaulted her while he drove her home after babysitting for him.

Ramdial is also accused of inappropriate touching by two other former youth members in 2005 and 2006, deputies said.
