A well-known West Michigan pastor and his wife are facing accusations involving sex, money and teenagers.
Reverend
Strick Strickland, 36, is pastor at Kalamazoo’s Second Baptist Church
on North Rose Street. His wife Jazmonique Strickland, 25, was a
paraprofessional at Phoenix High School in Kalamazoo until she resigned
last fall, one day before police executed a search warrant at the
family’s home.
After a four-month investigation by Michigan State
Police, several sources confirmed to Target 8 that detectives found
Strickland had paid teenagers to engage in sexual acts at his family’s
home on Prairie Avenue in Kalamazoo.
That property is owned by Second Baptist Church, where Strickland has been pastor since 2012.
Kalamazoo pastor accused of paying teens for sex acts
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.
