Authorities noted that Bartels is currently at the Latimer County Jail on a $100,000 bond.

Kiamichi Baptist Assembly is a camp for children and teens that was founded in 1942 and associated with the Southern Baptists, according to its website, which noted the camp “ministers to nearly 10,000 campers each year.”

A spokesperson for the camp told the Christian Post that Bartels was not associated with the camp, and that area churches oversee each of the property’s 40 cabins, which come with their own dining and living spaces.
