High School teacher and church pastor Jimmie Blake was arrested on charges he sexually assaulted a teenager. Blake is the pastor at Morning Glory Missionary Baptist Church.
Police said the incidents occurred between 1998 and 2003, but the victim didn't come forward until February 2011. According to police reports, the boy was either living in Blake’s home, or at least staying there, and the sexual acts happened when Blake would come into the boy's bedroom at night.
In the report, the victim said he was told that "men keep secrets," and that Blake threatened to kill him if he told anyone. The report also states Blake molested the boy in a bathroom at Lyman High School, where he was a teacher's assistant.
Men keep secrets until they are outed by their victims. What goes through the heads of these pastors? I’ll just have my way and nobody will ever know? Molesting a child screws them up for life. Of course their will be repercussions. Of course you will be outed.
