Oklahoma Megachurch Accused of Covering Up Rape of 13 Year Old, Blaming Child
Mother claims in lawsuit church officials didn't inform her for two weeks that an employee was caught raping her daughter
An Oklahoma megachurch waited two weeks to inform a mother that her 13-year-old had been raped by one of its employees, then it lied about having contacted the police and blamed the child, the parent says in court.
In connection to the alleged incident, Victory Christian Center, of Tulsa, admitted last week that its former employee Chris Denman has been charged with first-degree rape.
