LAS VEGAS (AP) - A self-proclaimed prophet and church leader has
been arrested on multiple charges of sex crimes against children in
Las Vegas.
Police say 75-year-old Benito Catello, who runs a church called "The Ministry" out of his home, faces 29 felony charges after his Friday arrest.
The charges include sexual assault and lewdness with a child under the age of 14.
Catello is being held on $295,000 bail at the Clark County Detention Center.
Investigators say they plan to release more details on the case Monday.
