Flora, commander of the North Carolina task force, said. An ex-school bus driver pleaded guilty to raping a 14-year-old girl.

Seven people were arrested after they allegedly traveled to meet and have sex with a minor, the agency said. One of the people arrested is a youth minister, the release said.
