Christian Brand Founder Gets 35 Years For Child Sex

The watchdog site Church Leaders reports:

Jesse Joshua Aceves, who founded the Christian clothing brand The Way and had been active in the Christian hip-hop music scene, was convicted last month of “numerous” charges of child molestation.

The 36-year-old, who was arrested in California back in 2020, has been sentenced to 35 years in a state prison. According to police in Beaumont, California, they arrested Aceves three years ago “for numerous charges of child molestation, which had been occurring for the past 17 years.”
