Jamaica: Pastor caught In ‘Compromising Position’ with 15-y-o

From Caribbean News Service

ST ELIZABETH, Jamaica, Jan 01 2017 – Police say a Moravian pastor based in Manchester, alleged to have had sexual intercourse with a 15-year-old girl on Wednesday night is likely to be charged with “having sex with a girl under 16 years old”.

Under Jamaican law, the age of consent for sexual relations is 16. Anyone below that age is a minor and therefore not eligible to consent to sexual intercourse.

Police say that at about 9:00 pm on Wednesday, a motorized police patrol in the deep-rural community of Austin in Myersville, south east St Elizabeth, close to the Alpart plant in Nain, came upon a parked car in a secluded area.

Further inspection revealed the pastor and the 15-year-old in what the police describe as a “compromising position”.

Investigators say they are following further leads as a result of allegations that the pastor may have been involved in similar behaviour previously.(Jamaica Observer)
