Overview
- Herbert, 55, was jailed Friday at the Kane County Adult Justice Center after prosecutors filed 10 felony counts a day earlier.
- The case began in December 2025 when a man in his 20s reported abuse that he said started in his early teens.
- Police and prosecutors allege Herbert groomed the teen over years in Aurora and nearby towns by using trust, gifts, and money.
- Detectives later identified additional men who reported abuse, prompting FBI involvement for incidents outside Illinois.
- Aurora Christian Schools said Herbert no longer serves on its board and investigators asked anyone with information to call 630-256-5500 or email tips@aurora.il.us.
