Disgraced Indiana evangelical leader Ted Haggard, who's been trying to repair his public image after his 2006 gay prostitute and drugs scandal, is this week facing new sex allegations. Revelations: Ted Haggard A New Life Church volunteer has stepped forward to reveal he had sexual relations with Haggard, some of them non-consensual. Haggard's successor as senior pastor of the Colorado Springs church Brady Boyd says an "overwhelming pool of evidence" pointed to an "inappropriate, consensual sexual relationship" that "went on for a long period of time ... it wasn't a one-time act." Since the revelation that he solicited prostitute Mike Jones for gay sex and methamphetamine two years ago, Haggard has been exiled from the church and entered counseling. He was set to appear on TV talkshow Larry King Live this week to speak about his life since the scandal. KRDO TV News' report on this story is shown below.
