Expert: Guilty ex-S.A. attorney PERVERT Mark Benavides displayed arousal to violent sex
FLORESVILLE — A clinical and forensic psychologist who reviewed sex videos and commercial pornography seized from a former San Antonio attorney said the defendant showed patterns of control and an arousal to violent sex, the expert told jurors Thursday.
Aaron Pierce was the last witness to testify before the state rested in the sentencing phase of the trial of Mark Henry Benavides, convicted Tuesday of continuous trafficking of persons. Twelve women testified that he coerced them into having sex to keep them out of jail or lessen their legal troubles.
Prosecutor Meredith Chacon asked Pierce for his expert opinion on video evidence he observed.
“Most concerning were two videos where women had to engage in anal sex,” he said. “It was very painful, they asked him to stop, they were crying.”
When Chacon asked if he noticed a pattern in the videos and evidence, Pierce said Benavides “consistently was the one in control, directing what was happening.”

Houston pastor indicted on charges of defrauding investors
HOUSTON (Reuters) - A prominent Houston megachurch pastor who counseled presidents and top executives was charged on Friday with selling investors more than $1 million in worthless Chinese bonds and using proceeds for his own benefit, federal authorities said.
Kirbyjon Caldwell, 64, senior pastor at the Windsor Village United Methodist Church in Houston, one of the nation's largest Protestant churches with about 17,000 members, faces wire fraud and money laundering charges in connection with the sale of historical bonds to mostly elderly investors.
The bonds were issued by the former Republic of China before 1949 - when the communists won that country's civil war and took power - are not recognized by the current Chinese government and have no investment value, said U.S. Attorney Alexander C. Van Hook in Shreveport, Louisiana.
