Dan Broxterman, the former pastor of FUN CHURCH (now closed) in Hamilton, Ohio, was indicted recently on ten counts of rape. One alleged victim was under the age of thirteen. Local 12-News reports:
A Butler County grand jury indicted Dan Broxterman, 56, on Aug. 8. According to the indictment, the rapes occurred from 2014 through July 2019. Broxterman was a pastor and the lead singer of a tribute band. He also faces charges of gross sexual imposition and disseminating matter harmful to juveniles.
Tammy Mercer attended one of Broxterman’s churches from 2010 until 2013. She believes many people were fooled by him. But, she said she became suspicious after learning he was ordained by paying $50 online. She also said she found out he was allowing teenagers to sleep over at the church and engage in sexual activity.
According to Local 12-News, Broxterman served time for gross sexual imposition in 1990 and 1994.
Broxterman previously pastored Tree of Life Church (now closed) in Hamilton, Ohio. A church listing website had this to say about Tree of Life and its pastor:
We have church in the Hamilton Family Fun Center and always have a reason to laugh. Pastor Dan makes sure of that! The kids love us because of our 222 CLUB. The music is powerful and energetic. Come worship with us! Turning Hamilton Downside Up From The Outside In!
“Kids love us”, and our pastor loves kids too. He’s a pedophile who pays close attention to church children. Praise Jesus!
According to Linkedin, Broxterman is the business development manager for Ohio Valley Insurance and Financial Group in Fairfield, Ohio. I suspect he is not doing much “developing” since he is sitting in jail with a $1 million bond.
Broxterman is the lead singer for PUSH — a DIO tribute band. Broxterman’s Twitter account mentions he is the lead singer for a called Holy Diver.
What a maroon! I got ordained in the Universal something-or-other Church for free.
I have a feeling that I would not see eye to eye with this guy.
That guy got the blew-est eyes uhh evarr dunn sayenn….One blew atta way, n’ thuh utherr blew atta way!!! :v
He was like that since he was born, he held both of his hands to his eyes and look through then.. And that ABSOLUTELY WRONG! He is a con man just like his brother, but Daniel is more than that HE’S JUST WEIRD, HE SURE WASN’T BROUGHT UP LIKE THIS!!! I’M NOT HIS JUDGE AND TRY MY BEST NOT TO JUDGE PEOPLE.. HE WILL GET HIS LAST RESORTS!!
So how long exactly did he know Sandy? He said he had known her for years. She had to have known who he really was.
Guess it would be a fun church to attend…
Get his just rewards
Shame to hear , nice guy on a personal level … Always a spirited person … Really knew the mortgage business … Hope he finds the heelness he needs with GOD
Barbara Pack, you better watch…
