A Pomona church youth pastor arrested last month for allegedly
sexually abusing at least one boy pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor
charge and will be sentenced Monday, court records show.
Marquis Kidd, 32, had originally pleaded not guilty to all charges Jan. 20,
according to court documents. But only a few days later, he pleaded no
contest to a single misdemeanor charge of annoying or molesting a child
under the age of 18.
Kidd, an elder and youth minister at the Mt.
Sinai Church of God at 936 West Ninth St. in Pomona, was arrested Jan.
14 at the Upland Police Station following an investigation into
allegations that Kidd had been having inappropriate relations with at
least one underage boy, officials said.
A woman answering the phones at Mt. Sinia Church referred all questions to their attorney, Sandra Crawford.
Former pastor at Pomona church pleads no contest to molesting a child
Welcome to H&C,,, where I aggregate news of interest. Primary topics include abuse with "the church", LGBTQI+ issues, cults - including anti-vaxxers, and the Dominionist and Theocratic movements. Also of concern is the anti-science movement with interest in those that promote garbage like homeopathy, chiropractic and the like. I am an atheist and anti-theist who believes religious mythos must be die and a strong supporter of SOCAS.
