Bishop Eddie Long Not The Only Pastor In Teen Sex Scandal: Billy McCurdy (Photos)
Written by HipHopRX Denise on October 14th, 2010 in Gossip/Rumors, Photos, People - U.S., Lifestyle, News.
Seems that Bishop Eddie Long is not the only one allegedly sexually abusing young teen boys. Pastor Billy Eckstine McCurdy, 57, of the Las Vegas church Revival Temple Church of God in Christ was arrested on Friday after a eight month investigation for sexually assaulting young boys at his home. McCurdy is being held at Clark County Detention Center and faces 11 sexual abuse charges.
According to reports, Billy Eckstine McCurdy, had a similar case 5 years ago that was dropped due to lack of evidence.
Two teens boys have accused Billy Eckstine McCurdy of sexual assaulting and claim that he forced them into sexual relationships by using his authority and bible scriptures which is similar in the Bishop Eddie Long civil lawsuit, as covered on www.HipHopRx.com.
On last Thursday, the young men had Billy McCurdy indicted after testifying to a grand jury. Billy Eckstine McCurdy was charged with five counts of open or gross lewdness and six counts of sexual assault. McCurdy is being held without bail.
Meanwhile, authorities feel that there are more victims, but they haven’t came forward yet.
Billy Eckstine McCurdy is known for being involved in youth functions and sponsoring trips, having youth events at his home as well as sleepovers.
McCurdy also opened his home and allowed young teen boys to leave with him for extended periods, which is the deal with the two latest victims.
In the 2005 case, McCurdy was accused of trying to fondle a high school student at his home after at youth slumber party. The victim claimed that he and other students where at McCurdy’s home and split up to go to bed after swimming. Authorities stated that victim told them that he was going to sleep on the floor in the Pastor’s room, but McCurdy invited him to sleep in his bed and when he woke up he felt McCurdy trying to place his hand on his privates. The boy is stated to have left and walked to a relatives home.
The D.A. didn’t prosecute for that particular case stating that it was due to lack of evidence and conflicts. Hmm…
The church stood behind Billy Eckstine McCurdy in that case. Let’s see if they still stand behind him in this one.
Currently they have no comments.

mess.

I’ll answer that Elroy, there are priests that are in love with women, but they leave or have a quiet relationship with them while doing their priestly duties. There are many gay priests that aren’t pedophiles they just can’t admit they’re gay and so they go into the priesthood as a way to suppress all sexuality.

SMH! He was accused five years ago, and the charges was dropped due to lack of evidence, then he seriously have a problem. He is a pedophile & why were parents leaving their boys with this man after the last accusations? There is no way I would have left my son with him, and I wasn’t there to see what was going on the entire time.
This is like Sodom & Gomorrah! It seems as though they will feel at home in jail..
Peace!!

Know this man before you judge this man, also know his accusers these men are liers they both are grown men that were taken down from their position in the church and vowed revenge. One of them already admitted he lied to the news and the other is in jail. People are so quick to say don’t judge me and so quick to judge themselves. Remember the talked about and falsely accused Jesus if you belong to God arm yourselves like wise.
