A new indictment against Alamo was released Tuesday as his lawyer entered a plea of not guilty, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported. Alamo's lawyer, John Wesley Hall, rejected the charges.
"It's all the same kind of stuff put out by the anti-Alamo groups," he said.
Alamo, head of Tony Alamo Christian Ministries, which is based in Arkansas, was already charged with transporting one girl across state lines. The superseding indictment adds new charges involving four alleged victims and acts allegedly committed between 1994 and 2005.
The first acts allegedly occurred while Alamo was awaiting trial in 1994 on federal tax evasion charges. Investigators say that another victim was molested in 1998 while Alamo was finishing his sentence in a Texarkana halfway house and was allowed to work at his ministry during the day.
