Recent investigations have led to the arrest of multiple church leaders across the United States and Canada on charges related to sexual misconduct involving minors. Adam Watson from Brampton, Ontario, faces charges of sexual assault and interference after allegedly assaulting a young person over several months. In North Carolina, youth pastor James R. Murphey was charged with 30 counts of sexual battery following a months-long investigation involving teenagers aged 16 to 19. Roby D. Cruz-Hernandez, a pastor at Iglesia Pentecostal El Mesias in New Brunswick, New Jersey, was charged with sexual assault and endangering the welfare of a child. Each case has prompted police to urge anyone with additional information to come forward.
