An investigation that began March 10 and led to the arrest of a local church youth leader on rape charges, has led to the arrest of a former church elder on felony charges stemming from alleged sexual communications with an underage church member.



According to the McCracken County Sheriff's Department, 54-year-old Frederick Daack, of West Paducah was indicted by a McCracken County Grand Jury and arrested Tuesday afternoon on several felony counts of unlawful use of an electronic device to procure a minor in a sexual performance, a class D felony.



Police said their investigation revealed that while serving as an elder at Milburn Chapel Cumberland Presbyterian Church between October 2012 and January 2013, Daack had illegal and inappropriate communications by phone and via text messages with a juvenile that attended the church. Police said the communications were sexual in nature. These instances were reportedly uncovered by sheriff’s detectives while conducting a separate investigation involving rape allegations against 44-year-old Michael Parsons, a former youth leader at the church.



Daack was taken into custody around 3:00 pm and taken to the McCracken County Regional Jail.



The McCracken County Grand Jury also indicted Parsons last week on charges including: distribution of obscene matter 3 Counts, rape 3rd degree, sodomy 3rd degree, and 10 counts of unlawful use of an electronic device to procure a minor in a sexual performance. Parsons remains in the McCracken County Regional Jail.
