FTA: The most prominent figure accused of sexual assault and predation who’s also closely associated with conservative Christianity is Roy Moore, the defeated Republican candidate for Senate in Alabama. Although multiple women accused Moore of preying on them when they were in their teens and he was in this 30s, he was able to stay in his race for the United States Senate (enjoying support of the president and the GOP in the end). A key factor in his ability to continue was support from his base of evangelical Christians. In fact, in the final count Moore garnered 80 percent of the vote of “white born-again Christians,” despite the accusations of child molestation. Luckily, he only received 22 percent of the “everyone else” vote which comprised more people, so he ultimately lost and we won’t have to deal with him in the Senate.
