State Rep. Dan Johnson's resignation sought after church member alleges sexual abuse

Another Frankfort legislator is being asked to step down amid allegations of sexual misconduct.

Dan Johnson, a preacher and Republican representative from Bullitt County, was accused of sexually abusing a member of his Fern Creek church, Heart of Fire, when she was 17. The woman says Johnson molested her after a New Year’s party in 2012, according to a report published Monday by the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting.

Johnson was not available for comment at his office Monday, and he did not return a phone call left at his home. Courier Journal is not naming the woman because she says she was a victim of sexual abuse.

Officials from both sides of the aisle are calling on Johnson to step down.

"Following today’s extensively sourced and documented story from the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting, we once again find ourselves in a position where we must call for him to resign, this time, from the Kentucky General Assembly," Mac Brown, the chairman of the Republican Party of Kentucky, said in a statement.

7. This guy Dan Johnson

is something. He calls himself "Pope" and "Bishop." He says he was cured of blindness as a child. Oh, and he says he has raised the dead.

"In 1990 he traveled with the International Worship Symposium to Columbia holding services in several large Soccer Coliseums, and Auditoriums. It was at one of these such meetings that the state bank presidents wife, a dead woman was brought to be blessed. Bishop Johnson prayed, laid hands on the woman and she was raised from the dead. This was the second time this type of miracle had happened, first was in San Diego, CA in 1989."

edit: he was also assisting firefighters and first responders at WTC on 9/11, and was sent by President Bush to be a peace keeper during the LA riots.
