Child Molesting Teacher Makes Bizarre Comment After Guilty Verdict

Former teacher, pastor, and foster parent Jordan Henderson was arrested after multiple fifth-grade students accused him of years of sexual abuse, with court documents detailing inappropriate touching, threats to keep the abuse secret, and multiple victims coming forward. A jury in Pierce County, Washington found Henderson guilty on all 12 counts of child molestation, including an aggravating factor that could increase his sentence. In a shocking moment after the verdict, Henderson told those in the courtroom “I forgive you” as he was led away, with sentencing now scheduled later this year.
