A church volunteer and web developer in South Carolina is facing charges of sexual molestation of two boys done several years ago.

Julio Andres "Andy" Castillo, 34, was said to have molested boys in a secret sex chamber he built in his attic, according to prosecutors.

Castillo has been in jail since Feb. 29 for two counts of criminal sexual conduct with a minor under age 11 first degree; one count of criminal sexual conduct with a minor second degree where the victim is between 11 and 14; and one count of lewd act on a child between ages 14 and 16, the Charlotte Observer reported.

He faces life imprisonment if convicted.

According to prosecutor Erin Joyner, Castillo preyed on the two brothers, now 18 and 20, who live two doors away from the suspect in Rock Hill.

Castillo was close to them and had keys to their home. But he used the closeness to sexually molest them, the prosecutor said.

The suspect was a former mentor to children at York Place and volunteer at the Episcopal Church of Our Saviour in Rock Hill.

His wife, Kathryn, pleaded in court for the judge to allow him to post bond, saying, "I need him—I love him and I trust him."

Joyner told the court that "sometimes (Castillo) would tie up his (the older boy) arms and legs during sexual abuse."

She said the parents found Castillo in bed with the boy during a trip to the South Carolina coast but thought that it was only because of his "quirky personality."

On the eve of his wedding in 2009, Castillo sexually assaulted one of the boys and hours later, the boys' father, who was unaware of the incident, attended the suspect's wedding.

The boys' parents told the court about Castillo's "betrayal" as a friend and neighbor.

"They were children. They did not ask for this. They did not deserve this," the father said.

The mother told the judge to "please do not give him an opportunity to harm another child."

The victims told police last January about the incidents and after a two-month investigation, Castillo was arrested. According to the victims' mother, they met Castillo through church.

The judge granted Castillo $80,000 bond but with conditions that he should have no contact with children other than his own, and that he should surrender all his weapons and passport.
