MOBILE, Ala. — Mobile police say a man charged with multiple rape and sex-abuse counts found some of his victims through churches in Citronelle, Ala., and Waynesboro, Miss.
Gregory Renee Adams, 63, is charged with three counts of first-degree rape, two counts of second-degree rape, three counts of first-degree sodomy and two counts of sexual abuse.
After a multi-jurisdictional investigation in which several victims came forward, authorities arrested Adams. Public Safety Director Lawrence Battiste said there were four victims. The preliminary investigation suggested Adams contacted some of his victims through churches in Citronelle and Waynesboro, and investigators believe there may be more victims.
‘It’s always somebody being brave enough to take the first step,’ Battiste said of the victims coming forward.
The Mobile Police Department urges other victims, witnesses or anyone with information to contact MPD at 251-208-7211 or the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office at 251-574-8633.
