Joshua Clemons was the youth pastor at Crossroads Community Church in Parker, Colorado, before going to work for Restoration Community Church in Denver. Church leaders in Parker learned in 2016 that Clemons had a sexual relationship with one of the teen congregants, but she was eighteen, so it was technically legal but highly unethical. So they said nothing. However, they recently learned the relationship began when she was underage and there may be more victims.
There were more victims in Denver. He was charged with using his authority to assault there girls.
He was sentenced to seven years, four in one county and three in another and ten years probation.
