TORONTO – A man is facing several charges after police say a woman was sexually assaulted and defrauded by a pastor at a Toronto church.
Police say a pastor at the United Spiritual Baptist Church (in the area of Midland Avenue and Eglinton Avenue East) offered spiritual guidance to a woman – including performing exorcisms – between May 2011 and May 2013.
It’s alleged that during these sessions, the man sexually assaulted the woman.
It’s also alleged that the man convinced the woman to give him money and property.
Wayne Marlon Jones, 53, of Ajax, is charged with sexual assault and three counts of fraud over $5,000.
The investigation is continuing and police say they believe there may be other victims.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Toronto police or Crime Stoppers.
