A Hot Springs youth pastor accused of rape has been arrested, according to the Garland County sheriff's department.

The Jefferson County sheriff's department arrested Andrew Lee Jackson, 28 of Hot Springs, in White Hall Monday night. He faces three counts of rape.

Police started the investigation involving Jackson and a 13-year-old girl Nov. 7, according to an arrest report.

Police said that the teen told investigators she and Jackson engaged in sexual intercourse three times at Jackson's home between August and October.

The Victory Tabernacle of Hot Springs United Pentecostal Church lists Jackson as the church's youth pastor on its Facebook page.

The victim told police she couldn't remember what happened during the first sexual encounter, but that Jackson told her she did consent to what took place, according to the arrest report.

She also disclosed that she and Jackson had sex two more times, once in September and a final time in October, the report said.
