Tulsa, Oklahoma -

Two more charges were filed today against a former Victory Christian Center employee accused of raping a girl at the church.

Chris Denman was arraigned last week on charges of rape of a minor under 14 years old, forcible oral sodomy of a minor under 14 years old, lewd molestation and use of a computer to facilitate a sex crime.

Prosecutors filed two additional charges on Monday. One count of making a lewd proposal to a 12-year-old girl and a second count of the use of a computer to facilitate a sex crime.

Prosecutors said the additional charges came after another victim came forward.
Police have been interviewing several girls at the church since Denman's arrest three weeks ago.

As a result of the investigation into the allegations against Denman, authorities have arrested and charged six other people.

Israel Shalom Castillo, 23, was booked on charges for lewd  proposal to a child and use of computer to facilitate a sex crime.

Both Denman and Castillo were working at the church this summer. Church officials said they both passed background checks.

Additionally five Victory Christian Center employees, including Pastor Sharon Daugherty's son and daughter-in-law, have been charged with failure to report child abuse. Prosecutors said church officials knew about the allegations against Denman for two weeks before calling authorities.
