Doesn't sound very good at all ....
A girl, 8 years old, was found dead submerged in a pond. Apparently evidence led investigators to the Clover Road Baptist Church, though they deny the Pastor is a suspect.
A couple alarming issues...
1. The Pastor was questioned for 3 hours
2. The church was searched by warrant
3. The Pastors computer, phone and other items were seized by Police
Those seem to be more than just what the Pastors wife explained ... questioned because their granddaughter played with the victim.
Quote:
Sgt. Tony Sheneman said other warrants in the case are sealed and that he would not answer questions about them in a press conference Tuesday evening. He also denied media reports that the church's pastor, Lane Lawless, was a suspect in the girl's death. Police have not named any suspects in the case.
Pastor Lawless was stopped by reporters Tuesday as he drove by Clover Road Baptist Church with his wife, Connie.
He said he was questioned by police for three hours Monday night.
Connie Lawless said they were being interviewed because they live down the street from the victim, Sandra Cantu, and their great granddaughter played with her.
Connie Lawless said they were fully cooperating with police, and that investigators took phones and a computer, among other items, from their home.
