Ohio Pastor Charged with Sexually Abusing Adopted Daughter Disinvited from Trump
An Ohio preacher was hurriedly disinvited from a Donald Trump campaign event with black pastors after learning he was scheduled to stand trial next month on charges that he sexually abused his adopted daughter.
Trump was the featured attraction at the Midwest Visions & Values Pastors & Leadership Conference held at the New Spirit Revival Center in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.
Pastor Paul Endrei’s name was included in a list provided to reporters by the Trump campaign, outlining 17 participants who were to appear with the presidential nominee at the front of the church’s sanctuary.
Pastor Darrell Scott, who co-founded the National Diversity Coalition For Trump and leads the New Spirit congregation, invited featured guests like Endrei who had no connection with Trumpworld.
Asked about Endrei’s legal troubles, a Trump aide stated the campaign was not aware of his presence or past, suggesting Scott was responsible for the invitation.
Included in the story is the detail that a chair was removed from an elevated row of seats just minutes before the event began to accommodate Endrei’s absence, though he was not present at the time the list was given to the press.
