When I read a story like this it just makes me realize that we need more immigrants from Africa so that things like this will stop happening.
Thirty-three-year-old Gabriel Omogbo swears he’s innocent. But escorts from Backpage.com tell another story—saying he snatched their money before assaulting them.
“I didn’t do it,” the god-fearing son preached to his dad—not from a pulpit as the trained pastor he pretended to be but from behind bars as he denied raping and robbing prostitutes at knifepoint.
Thirty-three-year-old “very toned” preacher Gabriel Omogbo has been defiantly sermonizing his innocence from prison “almost every day” to his father, Samson Omogbo, The Daily Beast has learned. “I am his father and of course I know none of these allegations are true,” Samson Omogbo said. “My son is not bad.”
The father said the family is supporting Omogbo, a Nigerian-born, college-educated preacher and, as demonstrated on his Facebook page, seemingly a devout holy man.
On any given Sunday, Gabriel Omogbo could be found in white robes delivering hymns and scripture like a dutiful holy messenger.
The accused pervy preacher is a natural, waking up his congregation with every “Can I get a hallelujah?” at the Celestial Church of Christ in Riverdale, Md.
Outside church may have been another story.
For Omogbo, it has been a quick detour to the dark side. Indeed, once detectives brought Omogbo into custody back on July 8, 2015, the sermons chronicled on the young man’s timeline turn almost sinister.
The father’s crestfallen son has been slapped with attempted murder and robbery charges for allegedly accosting at least three escorts he ordered private time with on Backpage.com this past summer at various motels and hotels in Rockville, Md.
But Samson Omogbo insists nobody knows his son better than he does. “They don’t know him,” he said. “My son always has taken care of everybody he’s known, and when he tells me he is innocent, I believe him.
