An after-school program director from Elmont was arrested for sex-related crimes that occurred last month, detectives say.

Daniel Butler, 41, is employed by the Fullness of Joy Ministries Church in Jamaica.

According to detectives, the 10-year-old female victim attends the after-school program and was also present at Butler’s home for childcare at 81 Rockmart Ave. in Elmont.

The incident allegedly happened at the Elmont home when he was babysitting the victim.

Nassau police tell News 12 that Butler turned himself in.

Butler is charged with rape in the first degree, sexual abuse in the first degree and endangering the welfare of a child.

He was arraigned on Thursday in Hempstead.

One man who did not want to show his face on camera says he knows Butler and was shocked to see his mugshot.

“Because of the fact that I know these people forever and I have never seen this guy as a predator, I’ve seen him as a community leader,” the man said.

News 12 attempted to speak to Butler at his home about the allegations, but he locked the doors and remained silent.

His wife responded by saying, “It’s a family situation, it’s private, I don’t even want it out there.”

Some parents picking up their children from the Jamaica church told News 12 off camera that they are unsure if they will be sending them back to the after-school program.

Detectives request that anyone who feels they may have been a victim to a similar incident to contact the Special Victim’s Squad at 516-573-4022 or Nassau County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS.
