Pastor accused of having sex with girl in parked car outside school - Sun Sentinel

He’s a pastor, doctor, prophet, even an apostle, preaching about unity and integrity when he’s at the pulpit, online videos about him say.

But according to a Lauderhill arrest report, Ricardo Strachan is a sexual predator who victimized a 13-year-old girl more than three dozen times from January to December 2016. He was 38.

Strachan is listed online as president of Prophetic Worshipers International Church in Lauderhill. Police say he scared the child into keeping the abuse a secret by having her steal clothes and other personal items from her family for him to use in voodoo rituals.

He also told the girl his wife was a cop and had a gun, according to a police report. Strachan had sex with the child in his vehicle in the parking lot at Dillard High School 10 times, other times he took her to a hotel, an arrest report said.
