    A Missouri case.net search of Wesley Ian Lamb does not show any criminal conviction but I believe some type of no contact style of protection order preventing Wesley Ian Lamb from contacting the girl anymore was the outcome of the accusation.

      The trial was dismissed due to his team stringing it along and the start of covid from what the victims has said on her social media

        I hope she decides to go for it again. He’s still doing what he did to other kids. It is awful.

          I agree someone should get in contact with the victim and let her know!

        This guy needs to be re- arrested then. And the church should be sued, if they knew and didn’t try to eject the guy.
