A North Texas pastor and gospel singer who calls himself "The Apostle" is accused of sexual crimes against children that police said happened in the 1990s and 2000s, WFAA reported.
Darrell Maurice Yancey, 59, faces three counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child and four counts of sexual assault of a child, as well as a charge of driving with an invalid license, The Dallas Morning News reported.
An arrest warrant affidavit said one victim was 13 when the alleged assaults began, and that she conceived three children with him, WFAA reported.
Yancey is noted for his gospel singing. A YouTube video of "Another Chance" has more than 15,400 views. On his Facebook page, calls himself 'The Apostle' and the CEO of "Yanzz Music."
Court documents said another victim was Yancey's daughter. The woman confirmed that information to WFAA.
Yancey has been a pastor at several Dallas-area churches, the Morning News reported. A Fort Worth church where Yancey had been a recent pastor could not be reached for comment, the newspaper reported.
