Kissimmee Pastor Angel Perez exonerated of any wrongdoing. All Charges Dropped.

In May 2012, Kissimmee Pastor Angel Perez was arrested by the Kissimmee Police Department due to a false allegation of a sex offense involving a minor.

Erik Kohler Press Release [03292013]

Mr. Kohler is shocked and dismayed that WKMG is running a sensationalized story about his arrest five weeks ago for a minor charge. The story improperly insinuates that Mr. Kohler tried to use his position to influence the law enforcement officer. However, it is clear that Mr. Kohler was simply asking to notify his employer that he would not be available the next day to fulfill his professional responsibilities and obligations. Read more..

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ANGEL PEREZ VOLUNTARILY SUBMITS HIMSELF FOR ARREST SO HE CAN ANSWER BASELESS ALLEGATION OF FRAUD.

Kissimmee, Florida:

The law firm of Longwell Lawyers represents Mr. Angel Perez. As was previously reported, Pastor Angel Perez was arrested in May 2012, and released on bond. No charges have been filed.

Pastor Angel Perez Press Release [07132012]

Once again, the Kissimmee Police Department (KPD) has taken to accusing first and asking questions later. In their latest attempt to vilify Mr. Angel Perez, KPD obtained a warrant for his arrest on allegations of fraud, without fully investigating the matter.

Octavius Mosley Statement

Mr. Mosley is not formally charged with any crime.  His arrest is based upon an unsupported claim of alleged misconduct that leaves a huge amount of room for reasonable doubt.  The entire case hinges on particular details and sequences of events that are unreliable, especially due to the fact that they were not reported simultaneously or even immediately after the alleged incident.
