THORNTON, Colo. – Agape Bible Church canceled all church services this past weekend following a Problem Solvers investigation into whether their head pastor tried to cover up an alleged sexual abuse case within the church.
A week ago, Agape’s former associate pastor Robert “Bob” Wyatt turned himself into police. He is accused of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl who went to that church.
Police documents and former congregation members allege that Agape’s head pastor Darrell Ferguson knew about the allegations in July and refused to go to police.
A 16-page arrest affidavit describes evidence that Ferguson knew about the allegations by July 21st, 2016 when Wyatt reportedly confessed the crime to the girl’s parents.
“Ultimately Darrell and [the girl’s parent] agreed to not report the sexual assault to the police or social services because they were concerned with what would happen to Bob,” the affidavit alleges.
