Statement
Veritas Baptist College learned of the serious allegations of immoral conduct leading to appropriate criminal charges against Kenneth Baldwin only through recent public reporting. Mr. Baldwin served as a member of our Board of Directors but, as a result of his alleged conduct, the Board has taken decisive action to revoke his position.
The conduct alleged in the charges is reprehensible, sinful, and in direct conflict with the biblical standards, moral character, and leadership qualifications that Veritas Baptist College upholds for all trustees, faculty, staff, and leaders. We are deeply grieved by these allegations and remain unequivocally committed to the protection of our students and the integrity of our institution. Publicly available information gives no indication that any Veritas student, employee, program, or activity was involved in any way.
Upon learning of the allegations, the Board immediately and without hesitation initiated the formal process necessary to remove Mr. Baldwin from any leadership position associated with the college, including membership on its Board of Directors.
We are praying earnestly for the alleged victim, his healing, comfort, and well-being, as well as for all those affected by these events. Veritas Baptist College will fully cooperate with law enforcement and any lawful investigation. To honor and protect the privacy of the student-aged victim, respect the judicial process, and the ongoing investigation, we are unable to offer further public comment.
