Another day, another youth pastor grooming a young girl in his care. Are Christian conservatives going to defend this one, too? Ugh, don’t answer that…
Alexander Blackwelder was arrested this week after allegedly having sex with a 16-year-old girl. The 26-year-old, besides sometimes sharing his sermons on YouTube, is the youth pastor in residence at the East Main Street Church of Christ in Tupelo, Mississippi. Tupelo Police detective Hal Veal told reporters police got a tip back on February 15 about the church’s youth pastor having an inappropriate relationship with an underage parishioner.
Police first questioned the girl, with her parents present at the interview. The teen denied any kind of improper relationship — but admitted to having one-on-one conversations on the phone and through Snapchat. That alone was enough to clue in detectives — and her parents agreed, signing a consent form allowing cops to search the girl’s phone. There they found sexually explicit photos and videos, as well as records of conversations with Blackwelder which led them to believe the two had done more than exchange pics.

In his first interview with police, back on February 17, Blackwelder denied there was anything inappropriate between himself and the girl. But on Wednesday he was brought into the station — after police already had the phone evidence. He cracked this time. Detective Veal said:
That was all they needed. Blackwelder was booked on one count of enticement of a child to produce visual depictions of adult sexual conduct and two counts of sexual battery.
Prosecutors asked that Blackwelder be held without bond, and in court on Thursday

debunked theory that claims young people — especially those assigned female at birth, and those who claim to have so-called “autism” or similar neurological or developmental disorders — will identify as transgender due to “social contagion” or peer pressure.

Utah’s law also imposes a permanent moratorium on puberty blockers for any youth who has not already been receiving hormonal interventions for at least six months.The passage of the Mississippi law continues the trend of Republican-dominated legislatures and Republican governors taking aggressive action to prohibit doctors from providing gender-affirming care to trans-identifying minors.A similar law signed by South Dakota Gov.
