Police indicate five juvenile victims over the past 30 may have been sexually assaulted by a church organist, and there may be more victims.
Winslow Township Police say 71-year-old Joseph Cuthbert was a volunteer organist here at the Erial Community Church in Gloucester Township.
Police say Cuthbert worked for years as an organist for several South Jersey churches and that is how he came into contact with his juvenile victims.
His neighbor and fellow parishioners say Cuthbert is a dedicated Christian who can recite bible passages.
“Very, very hard to believe. It’s mind boggling. It’s just unbelievable,” neighbor Barbara DeCicco said.
Winslow Township Police tell CBS 3 the initial alleged victim recently came forward claiming Cuthbert sexually assaulted him around September of last year.
