A pastor, 47 year old James
S. Jackson and his wife , Valerie

investigators with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office that she had
had years of "sexual sessions" with
the couple.


The teenager who is now 15

condom.

She also said Jackson performed oral sex on her when she was only 12 years old. Authorities said the girl's older sister also went through the same thing with Jackson which started when she was 17.
