LAS VEGAS (KSNV MyNews3) -- A Las Vegas man has been arrested and suspected of using his position as a volunteer Bible study leader to assault children.

In December, Sexual Assault Detectives from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department completed an investigation into allegations of sexual abuse of a child by David James, 29, a Bible study leader.

In January, James was remanded into custody after appearing in court to face 10 counts of sexual assault with a victim under 14, two counts of sexual assault with a victim under 16, and 10 counts of lewdness with a minor under 14.

Shortly after James’ arrest in January, Henderson Police Detectives received allegations of similar crimes. As a result of that investigation, James was rebooked by Henderson Police on charges of 10 counts of Lewdness with a minor under 14 and four counts of sexual assault.

It is believed James used Bible study classes and volunteered to lead Bible study classes at several different religious centers in the Las Vegas valley to gain access to the victims.

This investigation remains ongoing. Detectives are asking anyone who has concerns their child may have been a victim of James to call the LVMPD Sexual Assault Section at (702) 828-3421 or the Henderson Police Department at (702) 267-4750.

Anyone with any information about these cases may contact Crime Stoppers at (702) 385-5555 or at www.crimestoppersofnv.com.

This comes to show how you cannot trust anyone but yourself to take care of your kids. My mother-in-law has told me that it is no ones responsibility to raise our kids but ours. And my mother always has told me that no one will ever care for your children like you ever will.. They are both right. We do need to be aware that government does make up a lot of stuff in order to keep us scared and in check. Then again we do have these godless human beings who do wrong in our communities. Wake up mothers, fathers and parent guardians. Take your children out of school, keep your children close! YOU teach them right and wrong. I've always heard that if you take school and stuff like that from kids then they grow up to be sociopaths and what not, tat if you don't buy toys and latest gear then kids grow up to be materialist teens who as adults will do anything to achieve things they never had. I believe its false, I believe kids are raised with love, not by money and friends. Look at all this bullying affecting our kids, look at all these terms of adhd because your kids cant pay attention on certain subject, look at all that and realize how many more "terms" =and diseases have been "discover" in the last years. Whether you are religious or not I will say it is our responsibility to take care of our kids souls. If you truly as a mother, father, grandmother or etc care for your child PLEASE save our kids from this opportunist, corrupted, satanic world! Obviously we have been shown that nor schools, day care and churches are safe!!
