Another pastor goes down.
A former Dallas pastor has received a 5-year prison term for molesting a 10-year-old boy whose family he'd known for more than 50 years. Larry Joe Crocker also was sentenced to 10 years of probation yesterday, to be served after his release from prison. The 59-year-old pastor of the now-defunct Lakeview Christian Church was convicted on two counts of indecency with a child.

I lose track of their crimes. There are so many children damaged by men hiding behind god - it is sickening.
I am ashamed to say that I knew this guy. I can't understand why anyone stood by him throughout the trial. He is exactly where he is supposed to be, and hopefully he will have to serve his entire sentence. All we can do now is pray for him and the victims that he scarred forever.
ReplyDeleteI also knew Pastor Larry. I do not believe the accusations brought against him. I hope he gets out soon. I pray for him and his family. He does not deserve to be in prison.
ReplyDeleteYou do not believe children?? You believe a grown perverted man!! Even Satan tricked eve in the garden of Edan remember that!
DeleteI also knew Brother Larry and I too believe he is innocent. I pray that God brings him and his family through this. Those who say they knew him also know that he has a family and I ask that if you decide to post negative things about him remember them before you do so. Please at least have respect for his family even you have lost respect for him.
ReplyDeleteRespect for his family?? What about the boys he molested!! Do you know what being molested does to a person?? To a child.. did Larry Crocker respect his wife?? His children?? I know He had a 3ish year old son when he molested my friend!! Who needs to have respect is your “brother” Larry
DeleteI also knew Mr.Croker an he is a dirtbag ....he deserves as much time in prison as the law allows ...i hope he gets a big guy who likes men as his cellmate the members of the congregation that deny his guilt are complicit in his deviant behavior and should be ASHAMED of themselves ...thanks the powers at be that Lakeview church is CLOSED as it SHOULD be !
ReplyDeleteThis man is guilty!! He prays on children and not even that but at their most vulnerable.. my friend told me this story about 18 years ago.. when he was 10 ( may friend at this time was his his 20’s) Larry joe Crocker molested him.. my friend and his family where not church members or first Christian Church in Rockdale Tx that’s where Larry Crocker was “serving” as a pastor at the time... It was 1987.. my friends brother had just been ran over by a hit and run driver.. only 9 months before that his dad had died of a brain aneurism.. well “good ole boy” Mr. Crocker reached out to his family .. offered to take him and his brother on a fishing trip.. only to get him to get it the lake with him naked and moleste him! He jerked off a 10 year old.. let that sink in!! How sick can you be!! Not only to jerk off a 10 year old.. but also to scare him for life after him and his family had been through so much!! You Larry Crocker are a loser!! And I doubt God has forgiven you because.. to be forgiven you have to first confess your sins and turn from them.. and you won’t even admit what you did to probably many young boys!! Hell is hot Mr. Crocker.. you are 70 years old now!! Maybe you should confess your sins before you meet your maker
