MOBILE, Alabama -- The Mobile County Sheriff's Office says that they have turned over evidence to federal investigators involving a Mobile missionary accused of child molestation in Honduras, WKRG reports.
William James “Will” Atkinson was arrested in February at the international airport in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, as he attempted to flee the country, according to the Spanish-language Honduran newspaper La Prensa.
