• Religious leader accused of sexually abusing his young grandson
• The boy alleges that the outrages began since he arrived from Honduras

2021 has not been the best year for the churches, as the scandals related to religious people seem to have no end. And it is that the story of another «pastor» who was arrested and formally accused of sexual abuse to the detriment of a child has just come to light.

This is Renán Guandique, a pastor of Honduran origin who was arrested by the authorities of Anoka County, Minnesota, on February 5, after allegedly being denounced by his own daughter, since the man allegedly abused his own grandson.

Another ‘pedophile’ pastor

According to the court records of Anoka County, Minnesota, the defendant faces charges of criminal sexual conduct against a minor under the age of 13, a felony for which he could spend several years behind bars.

Living with the Enemy

Everything indicates that the little boy arrived in the United States accompanied by his mother a couple of years ago and that they moved to live with Pastor Renán Guandique, who before his arrest was the leader of the King Jesus New Wine Church, which has many faithful in that city.

That small evangelical congregation is located in the city of Minneapolis. A source close to this case and who spoke exclusively with MundoHispánico On condition of anonymity, he told us that everything was discovered in the school where the little victim studies.

“The child showed symptoms of abuse. He did not want to play with his classmates or participate in activities, so he was questioned by his teacher and the school psychologist, ”the source told me.

«It was then that the boy told what his grandfather did to him since he and his mother arrived from Honduras,» he added.

Despite the seriousness of the charges he faced, Guandique was released a few days after his arrest after paying $ 250,000, 10 percent of what the state judge in charge of the case imposed as bail, which in total was 2 million and a half dollars.

The “pastor” Renán scandal joins another recent one in which a priest was arrested for “desecrating the altar of God”.

The reason I put quotation marks around the word “pastor” is simply because I am convinced that not everyone who claims to be so is.

And it is that according to the same Bible that these impostors proclaim so much, many deceivers will come dressed as sheep, but in reality they are ravenous wolves and this other case that I narrate to you today confirms it.

 

A priest and two women were accused this week of having sex on the altar of a church and recording the lustful encounter that occurred in Louisiana, United States. The controversial action was not forgiven by the police or ecclesiastical authorities.

How I know reported in MundoHispánico at the time the case broke out, Travis Clark, 37, who was pastor of the Saints Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church, in Louisiana, was caught in a video recorded by himself having sex with two women in the altar of the church last September.

Sexual threesome with priest

The St. Tammany district attorney’s office said Clark and the women, Mindy Lynn Dixon, 41, of Washington, and Melissa Kamon Cheng, 28, of Georgia, were charged with institutional vandalism Thursday, it reported. Boston 25 News.

The three were found «knowingly vandalizing, defacing or damaging property and causing damage valued at more than $ 500 and less than $ 50,000,» said District Attorney Warren Montgomery, according to the aforementioned media.

They seek to eliminate the charges

The pastor and the two women, who were dominatrixes according to the Boston 25 News review, were originally charged with obscenity charges because their act could be clearly seen from the street, but those charges were later reduced to the lesser charges of vandalism.

«It is clear that the State did everything possible to distort the facts of this case to fit its own narrative,» Bradley S. Phillips, attorney for Dixon and Cheng, told WWL. At the same time, he added: “Once again, they have overstepped their limits in what is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to regulate the morality of private individuals. Just because you don’t like something doesn’t make it a crime. My clients look forward to their day in court as we continue to fight this baseless accusation. «

They burn the altar where the priest had sex

The altar of the church where the priest and the two women had sex last year was removed and burned by the Archdiocese of New Orleans. Archbishop Gregory Aymond consecrated a replacement altar, and Clark was later removed from ministry for actions that would be reprehensible to many.

«His obscene behavior was deplorable,» Aymond told WWL. “His desecration of the altar in the Church was demonic. I am enraged by your actions. When the details were clear, we had the altar removed and burned, ”he said.

The arrest of the priest and two women after having sex at the altar

In September, authorities arrested the priest for having a threesome at the altar of his church in Louisiana. According to the Louisiana State Police, the priest was detained while having sexual relations with the two women.

At that time, the police reported that it was a passerby who witnessed the events on September 30 at the Catholic Church of Sts. Peter and Paul. This person was able to appreciate the priest Travis Clark and the two women having sex at the altar of that church, according to the newspaper. Penn Live.

They got caught on the spot

The passerby also observed a series of sex toys, professional lighting and cameras mounted on tripods, with which it is presumed that they could have been recording the erotic scene, according to the Nola.com portal.

Later, he set out to record the events and report them to the Pearl River police, whose officers arrived at the church and then arrested the priest Travis Clark on obscenity charges and the two women who accompanied him at the meeting.

A woman said she was going to «desecrate a house of God»

According to Nola.com, one of the detainees, Mindy Dixon, was an adult film actress who also works for a salary as a dominatrix. The aforementioned media also pointed out at that time that said woman published a message on social networks on September 29, where she said that she was going to the New Orleans area to meet another dominatrix «and desecrate a house of God.»

The women, who wore corsets and high-heeled boots, told police that they were there filming a role-play with the aforementioned priest. Although the sexual act was consensual between the different participants, the trio was arrested on charges of obscenities.
