Published By admin with Comments 0
A congregant from the Golden Dawn Tabernacle in Tucson was charged Thursday with five counts of child molestation following an Arizona Daily Star/Lee Enterprises investigation in which he publicly admitted to sexually abusing a child.
Jose Mora, 57, was also charged with three counts of sexual conduct with a minor, a felony in which the perpetrator intentionally or knowingly engages in sexual intercourse or oral sexual contact with someone under 18.
Mora could face life in prison for those charges, depending on the age of the victim. For the alleged child molestation, which involves engaging in sexual contact with a child under 15, Mora could be sentenced to up to 24 years in prison.
