Your warning came too late for Pastor Yohandry Bravo. Fortunately, the police found him 5 days ago:
Macon pastor arrested on rape, child molestation charges
An Atlanta police traffic stop caught a Macon pastor wanted for more than two years on charges of rape and aggravated child molestation.
Yohandry Bravo, 39, was booked into the Bibb County Law Enforcement Center shortly after 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to jail records.
The Atlanta officer quickly learned of the warrants during the traffic stop and took Bravo to jail in Clayton County, according to the public affairs officers with the Bibb County Sheriffs Office. Bibb deputies drove to Clayton County to pick up Bravo, who did not face any charges in Atlanta, the officers said.
Arrest warrants were signed more than two years ago for Bravo, who is charged with raping a 16-year-old girl at his house across from Smileys Flea Market in January 2013.
At the time, Bravo had been a pastor for 17 years, according to his Facebook page, and was leading a congregation of between 200 and 250 people at Ministerio Internacional Jesús es el Señor on Hawkinsville Road.
Bravos 15-year-old son, Jose, was killed Nov. 23, 2012, after he stepped onto Hawkinsville Road to retrieve a hat that had blown out of the car he was riding in. After Jose died, a couple of families moved in with Bravo and his family.
Allegations of rape followed shortly afterward. Bravo was regularly featured in Macon Regional Crimestoppers, but he had eluded capture.

PERRIS PASTOR ARRESTED FOR RAPE OF MINOR
PERRIS, Calif. -- A pastor in Riverside County has been arrested for rape and other sex crimes, and investigators say there may be more victims. Jerome Anthony Clay Sr., a pastor at Compassion Church in Perris, is charged with raping a person under the age of 16. Authorities did not say whether the victim was a church member.
Clay, 41, was taken into custody Thursday after search warrants were served at his church and his home in the 400 block of Perris Boulevard. He is being held on $110,000 bail and is expected in court on March 17.
Perris residents had mixed reactions to the news.
"There was a lot of bad stuff that goes on at this church, they say it doesn't, but it does," Jordan Egbert said.
Robert Arnold, who used to attend Compassion Church, said Clay was a popular figure.
"He was involved with the community, the people, but what happened, I don't know," Arnold said.
Authorities believe there may be other victims. Anyone with information is urged to call the Perris Police Department at (951) 210-1044.

Westlake pastor accused of sexual battery, gross sexual imposition
WESTLAKE, Ohio A pastor at a popular Westlake church is facing sex-related charges in Lorain County Common Pleas Court, according court records.
Paul Endrei, 53, of Avon is charged with two counts of sexual battery and one count of gross sexual imposition. Endrei is the founding and senior pastor atChurch on the Rise on Crocker Road, according to the church's website.
A grand jury indicted Endrei on Wednesday and Lorain County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested him Thursday, according to court records.
He was released from Lorain County Jail Thursday after posting $50,000 bond.
Details about the case have not been released. The Church on the Rise issued the following statement about the matter, and Endrei said in an email that he did not have any additional comment:
"The Church on the Rise of Westlake is aware of the recent indictment by Lorain County of Pastor Paul Endrei. We pray for Pastor Paul, his wife and 5 children. We are aware that the allegations are coming from one of the children adopted by the Endrei's. We pray that this troubled adolescent receive the help and counseling she needs.
"The Church believes in our legal system and that the truth will come out. To assist in that end, we are requesting that the media and press respect the privacy of Pastor Paul and his family. Church grounds are for spiritual growth and not for media or press interviews. We hope this request for privacy is respected and the press and media refrain from entering Church property.
"Pastor Paul maintains his presumption of innocence and hope that all reserve judgment until all facts are properly aired in a court of law. We not only have faith in our lord but also in our system of justice. Only after both sides present their case can a judgment be made in this very serious matter. We thank all members of the church and community for their prayers and continued support."
