Savannah’s ABC affiliate reports:
A former Savannah pastor will serve 25 years in prison and life on probation for child molestation and statutory rape. Alfonza McClendon Sr. was convicted of molesting two children between 2013 and 2017. The molestation happened while McClendon was pastor of the First Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church. He will have to register as a sex offender when he’s released from prison.
District Attorney Shalena Jones provided a statement following the conviction. “When an individual’s childhood is compromised by such egregious, horrifying acts, it will stay with them forever. For these victims turned survivors to bring their story to light and face their perpetrator is a great act of bravery. I commend these survivors for coming forward and encourage others to do so.”
