Investigators revealed that Noelsaint drugged the victim by secretly placing pills into her tea. This incapacitation preceded the sexual assault. Following the guilty verdict delivered by the jury, Noelsaint is scheduled for sentencing in September.
The case originated from an investigation into allegations that the victim was drugged and incapacitated before the assault occurred. The jury's decision reflects the serious nature of the charges brought against the pastor.
