Tulsa reverend arrested on federal child porn complaints

TULSA — A Tulsa pastor is the second local man caught up in a federal investigation into child pornography.

KRMG has confirmed Rev. Ron Robinson was arrested Thursday and taken to the Tulsa County jail.

We have obtained a copy of the federal indictment, which contains details too graphic and disturbing to quote.

It includes references to Robinson’s fantasies of raping and even murdering children.

The pornography being shared via the online app which investigators allege Robinson was watching and commenting on included depictions of adults having sex with children as young as three years old.

Most of the depictions were homosexual in nature, involving adult men engaged in sex with young boys, or boys engages in sexual acts with one another.

Robinson works at Phillips Seminary in Tulsa, where he is listed as Director of Denominational Formation (Unitarian Universalist) and Adjunct Instructor of Practical Theology.

According to the website, he "was ordained by All Souls Unitarian Church in Tulsa in 2002 and is Executive Director of the national organization, Unitarian Universalist Christian Fellowship, and Executive Director of the Tulsa northside renewal organization, A Third Place Community Foundation, created by the local missional community he planted called The Welcome Table."

Robinson also served as pastor for "The Welcome Table," which is described on its website as a "non-creedal missional community in a progressive ecumenical universalist christian way."
