Pro-Prop 8 Minister Held on Child Molestation Charges

Prop 8 Pervert Pastor Tom Daniels

A baptist minister from Rio Linda, Ca. is being held on $6 million bail, facing six counts of lewd acts and sexual conduct with a child under 14 years old. Pastor Tom Daniels, of The First Baptist Church was arrested December 9th. The news was kept under wraps until this weekend. A substitute pastor has been filling in for Daniels at his Sacramento area church, but the congregation was not told the reason for his absence.

The charges against Daniels involve claims of molestation between 2004 and 2007. According to reports, Daniels was a contributor to California's anti-gay Proposition 8. Queerty reports:

Daniels stands accused of sexually violating children between June 2004 and June 2007. This isn't the first time he's been on the radar of police: In 2008 a complaint was made against him, but police say they had insufficient evidence to pursue a case. Now another victim has come forward, and prosecutors slapped him with one charge of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years of age, and another charge for engaging in multiple sexual assaults of a child.

It's so far unclear how Daniels came in contact with the children, but I'm going to take a wild guess: given the guy was a FOSTER PARENT and DAY CARE PROVIDER, he was around kids all the time.
