From the West Alabama Newsroom–Â The case against a Dallas County church pastor accused of various sex charges involving a minor — is headed to a Dallas County grand jury.
District Attorney Michael Jackson says William Best Junior waived a preliminary hearing scheduled for this morning– and the case has now been sent to the grand jury.

Best was serving as the pastor of Living Waters Church when he was arrested last month — and charged with rape — sodomy — and incest.
