WASHINGTON — A second teenage girl has stepped forward to accuse a D.C. police officer and pastor of sexual abuse.
Court documents accuse 45-year-old Darrell Best of Upper Marlboro, Maryland with assaulting a 17-year-old girl in December, inside his office at the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters. The girl has told police the assault occurred after Best took the girl to dinner at an upscale D.C. restaurant.
According to the documents the victim works with her mother cleaning the SE D.C. church where Best serves as pastor — God of a Second Chance Ministry Church.
Another girl, a 16-year-old, has described to police three sexual assaults by Best, her pastor. The girls says the abuse began Dec. 23 of last year and occurred twice more in January and February during church choir practices.
