Pastor’s Release Sparks Church Cancel | Texas News

A Houston pastor convicted in an online child sex sting is set for release after serving just a fraction of his 25-year sentence — but his welcome-home party has been canceled. Church leaders, unaware of his conviction when they booked the event, pulled the plug due to safety concerns over his sex offender status and the presence of children. This isn’t his first run-in with the law — he’s also got prior convictions for murder, robbery, and drugs — and was once involved in prison ministry during his 2015 arrest. The event’s organizer, a fellow ex-con who believes in redemption, says Busby has met all parole requirements. He’ll remain on parole for another 14 years.
