WILX reported in June, 2019, that a girl younger than 14 came forward with allegations that Trevino repeatedly molested her at his family home in Holt.
She said Trevino often hosted sleepovers for kids from church.
The girls said he touched her inappropriately six times between October, 2018, and March, 2019.
