A pastor has been charged with child grooming, with two counts stemming from separate juvenile victims. Jorge Ivan Gonzalez Martinez was arraigned and given a $100,000 bond. The investigation began after a victim made an outcry to her father, reporting inappropriate touching at a church.

The alleged incidents occurred between March and April 2025. Further details about the case are available from the city of Edinburg's press release.

The pastor is associated with Poder Y Gloria Church, and an investigation was conducted after the initial outcry in July.
