Youth pastor Jordan Baird, 25, was arrested by the police last week after he allegedly exposed himself to a teenager while inside his father's church.

Baird, who was mentored by singer Joe Jonas in the CW competition "The Next" back in 2012, is the husband of former Hillsong United singer and songwriter Michelle Fragar. He is the son of senior pastors David and Jo Ann Baird of The Life Church in Virginia, according to The Christian Post.

He was charged with three counts of indecent liberties by the church's custodian for exposing himself to a teenager back in 2015 while inside his father's church, which is located in Manassas. It was only this July 7 when detectives from the Special Victims Unit of the Prince William County Police Department in Virginia responded to investigate the inappropriate contact that was carried out by Baird.

The youth involved is a 16-year-old female juvenile, who reportedly received salacious text messages from Baird who also allegedly touched her inappropriately on several ocassions sometime between January and September 2015. Following their investigation, the detectives immediately obtained a warrant on Aug.17 and Baird was "arrested without incident at a residence in Fauquier County later that evening."

Then on Tuesday, the Prince William County Police made an announcement stating that an additional charge of indecent liberties was filed by the custodian against Baird. A second victim reportedly came forward and revealed that when she was only 17 years old, in 2013, Baird made inappropriate statements and also exposed himself to her while inside the church. The girl even said Baird had sexual contact with her.

Baird got married to his wife Michelle that same year. She is the daughter of well-known worship songwriter and producer Russell Fragar.
