Former Leader Of Defunct Ex-LGBTQ Torture Group Exodus International Busted In Child Sex Sting [VIDEO]

The Orlando Sentinel reports:

The former president of a now-shuttered, anti-LGBTQ organization was arrested Tuesday for seeking sex from an undercover deputy posing as a 14-year-old boy, according the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. Alan Chambers, 54, of Winter Park, was booked in the Orange County Jail without bond on charges of soliciting a minor, transmitting material harmful to minors and unlawful use of a two-way communications device.

Chambers led a “pray-away-the-gay” ministry until 2013 when he shut it down and apologized to those he said had been hurt by the organization. From Feb. 10 through May 4, Chambers is accused of repeatedly seeking to meet with a teenager for sex, according to the affidavit. On Tuesday morning, detectives said they interviewed Chambers during a traffic stop on Aloma Avenue and Strathy Lane, where he confirmed the accounts he was messaging from were his but stopped the interview when he was asked about the conversations.

A Sheriff’s Office spokesperson said investigators are working to find out whether there are other victims. Chambers is slated to appear before a judge on Wednesday. Chambers once helmed the Orlando-based Exodus International as part of the so-called “ex-gay” movement and was a fervent proponent of conversion therapy for LGBTQ people. He also served as associate pastor at Calvary Assembly of God in Orlando until 2005.

Read the full article. Longtime JMG readers will remember Chambers for his many appearances here before he shut down Exodus and announced that not one of its countless victims had ever become straight.

Via Wikipedia: “In 2006, Exodus International had over 250 local ministries in the United States and Canada and over 150 ministries in 17 other countries.”

Former Exodus International leader Alan Chambers—the face of the “pray away the gay” movement—was arrested for trying to solicit a 14-year-old.

The same conservatives who used him to demonize LGBTQ people will now pretend this somehow proves their point.
