Clerical arrest.

A former Episcopal leader in Arkansas has been arrested on suspicion of possessing child pornography.

Los Angeles police arrested Robert W. Bowman, rector at Saint Luke's Reform Episcopal Church in Santa Ana, Calif., and headmaster of CrossRoad Christian Academy in Gardena, Calif., back in May.

Bowman founded St. Thomas' Reformed Episcopal Church in Little Rock in 1998. (We're told Bowman also worked at Pulaski Academy for a while before leaving the state. The academy hadn't returned phone calls as of press time.)

Bowman left the church a few years later, eventually landing in Santa Aria.

The Los Angeles Police Department said it had received no new updates from the lead detective and that the case was still under investigation.

You may also have heard that a Little Rock man and partner in a local commercial real estate firm was arrested last month in Sebastian County in a sting operation on a charge of possessing computer child pornography.

David Allen Lewis, a partner at Irwin Partners LLC of Little Rock, arranged online to meet an undercover officer, whom he thought was a 16-year-old girl, at her place of residence, the charge says. Lewis also worked in the youth ministry at Pulaski Heights United Methodist Church.

Lewis faces a possible 20-year sentence if convicted of the crime.
