A former pastor of a Texas megachurch – and ex-Donald Trump spiritual adviser – surrendered to Oklahoma authorities on Monday on charges of child sexual abuse.
Robert Preston Morris, 63, turned himself over to officials in Osage county, where he was charged on Thursday with five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, Phil Bacharach, a spokesperson for the Oklahoma attorney general’s office, told the Associated Press.
Court records show an Osage county judge set a $50,000 bond and ordered Morris to surrender his passport.
Morris is expected to make an initial appearance before a judge at 10am on 9 May, Bacharach said.
Attorney Mack Martin declined to comment on the charges but said he anticipated entering a not guilty plea on Morris’s behalf.
