A Valley man is out of his church and in jail. Police say he claimed to be a prophet but instead,
they say, he was molesting children.
Metro says Benito Catello is a self-proclaimed prophet who’s facing dozens of felony charges. Catello’s neighbors say they’re outraged to find out someone accused of such atrocious crimes, especially against children, lived near them.
“That’s not something I would allow in my neighborhood, and if I knew anything about this, this would be something, he wouldn’t be welcome in this neighborhood for very long at all,” said Jacob Capehart, a neighbor of Catello.
Catello is being held in CCDC right now. He was booked on at least 29 counts, including sexual assault, sexual assault on a victim under fourteen years old, and lewdness with a minor under fourteen.
Catello is 75. He ran The Ministry, a church out of his home near Owens and Mount Hood, which is in the northeast part of Las Vegas.
If convicted, Catello could be done for good. He could spend the rest of his life in prison.
Metro is still investigating whether there are more victims out there. If you suspect Catello of anything at all, call police. In this type of case, even the slightest detail can lead to a big break.
