Alan Chambers, a Winter Park businessman and former leader of a well-known 'gay cure' ministry, has been arrested in Florida after police allege he attempted to arrange a meeting with a 14-year-old boy he believed he had been communicating with online.
Orange County deputies said they 'stopped a predator before he had the chance to harm a child' following an undercover operation that led to Chambers' arrest on Tuesday morning in Winter Park. Authorities allege the 54-year-old engaged in sexually explicit messaging with an undercover detective posing as a minor, and tried to set up a physical meeting.
