ANAHEIM -- A pastor in Anaheim has been sentenced to six years in prison for sexually assaulting four girls who attended his church.
Jose Rama Campoverde, 46, was sentenced Thursday after he pleaded guilty to one felony count of lewd acts on a child under 14, five felony counts of lewd acts on a child and two misdemeanor counts of child annoyance.
Campoverde was charged with molesting the girls, who ranged from 13 to 17 years old, between July 2004 and September 2009.
Authorities say the assaults took place at the Ministerio Cristo Vive church and other locations.
He was ordered to register as a sex offender.
The case came to the attention of authorities when one of the girls came forward last fall.
According to the girl, the pastor was waiting for her at a bus stop in Anaheim.
Police say Campoverde told the girl that he was there to drive her home and that he had permission from her mother.
On the way to her house, police say he inappropriately touched and tried to kiss the victim.
Detectives later learned that three other females had also been allegedly victimized by this individual.

"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
