One of the ministers who serves a Theodore church where Roy Moore spoke Wednesday night was federally convicted of trying to block an investigation involving claims his son molested children in Honduras.

Rev. Bill Atkinson led the music portion of the Moore event at the Magnolia Springs Baptist Church, where the U.S. Senate candidate spoke for over 20 minutes and was interrupted twice by people in the audience.

In 2012, Atkinson was found guilty of obstruction and conspiracy for ordering two of his children to destroy a hard drive of a digital video recorder, which held evidence that incriminated his son for child molestation. At the time, William James "Will" Atkinson IV was in a Honduras jail awaiting trial on charges that he molested children at an orphanage the Atkinson family owned. Those allegations came to light when his younger brother, Jonathan Atkinson, set up a secret surveillance system in Will's office after some of the children said they had been touched inappropriately.

Authorities maintained that the eldest Atkinson then tried to get his son out of Honduras and back to Theodore.

1. Well you know what they say about judging someone based on the company they keep.

I mean who would have guessed someone connected to Roy Moore would be wanted on sex crime charges? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you!

6. Just cannot make this shit up

I really have had my fill. A convicted criminal in a child molestation conspiracy working in a church as a pastor who is defending a pedophile running for Senate that used to be the Chief Justice of the Alabama state Supreme Court.

I don’t know what hellscape I’ve woke up in but I want out...I give.

8. Unbearably awful family story, ugly as homemade sin. What a shame they had control of poor orphans,

who had nowhere else to go, no one to turn to for help.

Proud "Christian" values people.
