Courts

A South Bay man has been charged with sexually molesting teenage children during church trips at his house on a Morgan Hill lake, according to the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office.

The case against 54-year-old Norlan Macias, of San Jose, was launched several years ago when a retired police officer heard a man describing a molestation on a podcast called, “Preacher Boys,” says a press release from the DAs office.

Macias is charged with molestations that allegedly happened during a period that lasted longer than a decade, between 2001-2012. 

Police and prosecutors are seeking others who may have been victims of Macias, who was a janitor at the Campbell Union and Mountain View school districts, the DA said.

Macias faces 11 counts of felony sexual molestation of five minors, ranging from 8-17, according to authorities. His arraignment is scheduled for 1:30pm July 11 in department 23 in the Hall of Justice in San Jose. If convicted, he could face life in prison.

“I would like to thank the retired police officer for his diligence and dedication,” DA Jeff Rosen said. “As with many officers, his mission of protecting our community’s children never stopped. I hope all of us take that same responsibility.”

The case against Macias began in 2020, when a retired San Jose Police Officer recognized Macias from the video podcast, which documents child abuse associated with religious institutions, the press release says. The retired officer called 911.

The defendant used to take a group of teenage parishioners of the North Valley Baptist Church out on a boat at Lake Anderson in Morgan Hill, Rosen’s office said. The boys would then go to the defendant’s house in Morgan Hill, where the molestations took place.

While investigating this case, a detective stumbled on a 2013 report by a minor who said that he, too, was molested by Macias, authorities said. The minor said the defendant lived near him and that he molested him after hiring him to do work on his home. After the initial statement, that case was closed due to lack of victim cooperation.

Anyone with information about the suspect and molestation can contact Deputy DA Joanna Lee at jo****@da*.org.

  1. Rosen is helping Valerie Houghton and a retired judge to sex traffic my children. He is also covering up physical assaults against me.

    “I would like to thank the retired police officer for his diligence and dedication,” DA Jeff Rosen said. “As with many officers, his mission of protecting our community’s children never stopped. I hope all of us take that same responsibility.”

    Rosen says he hopes “all of us take that same responsibility.” He is also included in “us”, yet he does nothing to protect my kids against sexual abuse. The statement is a façade meant to convince voters that he cares about what happens to children.

    He just doesn’t care. I don’t understand how anyone with children could vote for Rosen.

  2. Just see what the assaults have done to me:

    https://www.scribd.com/document/584600169/Valerie-Houghton

    I have been poisoned so many times that my testicles have atrophied, the shape of my face has changed and all of my organs are damaged.

    How can a District Attorney allow this to occur, especially when a parent is just trying to protect his kids?

    If he is doing this, what else is he up to?

  3. Valerie Houghton has already done the same to Violet Brooks. Her three young girls were being sexually abused. Instead of doing anything to protect them, Ms. Houghton forced the sexual abuse to continue.

    Because of Houghton’s connection to Rosen, the D.A.’s Office refused to intervene.

    Ms. Houghton is not even coy about any of this. Just see her own statements:

  4. Here is another parent that this has happened to:

    After Daya Baran discovered that an in-law was molesting his daughter, charges against him were suddenly filed.

    Mr. Baran was also POISONED. Now he is a diabetic and the pigmentation in his face was damaged.

    See it all here:

    There are many other parents who are too afraid to speak up. What is happening to children in our county is a travesty of justice.

  5. You just can’t trust Jeff Rosen to protect the children of our community. He won’t think twice about allowing them to be raped as a favor to his friends.

    Valerie Houghton has sex trafficked many, many kids. I know that Rosen has received several complaints about her even before mine. Had he addressed it properly, none of this would have happened me and my kids. She is actually still in business. Rosen should be considering all the future victims. He just doesn’t care. https://www.valeriehoughtonmft.com/

    Just see how open Ms. Houghton is about the sex trafficking and violence. There are many posts that I recently included in a state bar complaint.

  6. DA Rosen is being disingenuous when he claims that everyone needs to protect children from sexual abuse.

    When I reported it, he filed charges against me. Then he let Valerie Houghton POISON me. She wanted to pressure me to take certain actions that would jeopardize my standing to protect my kids. Jeff Rosen didn’t care. He refused to stop prosecuting me or offer me any protection.

    Now all of my organs are damaged, testicles atrophied, and the shape of my face has changed. See what happened to my face here: https://www.scribd.com/document/536324007/Valerie-Houghton-Divorce-Attorney-and-Marriage-and-Family-Counselor

    The truth is that Rosen lets people who are connected to him commit serious crimes. One day it could be you and your family who his associates are targeting.

    He only makes statements like the one published in this article to make it seem like he cares about the children in Santa Clara County.

  7. DA Jeff Rosen doesn’t have any empathy. I once heard Margret Petros tell a story that she brought a mother of a murdered child to talk to Rosen. She tried to give him information about her dead son.

    Not only would Rosen not accept the documents, he quickly walked away without saying a word.

    This is how he is also treating me. He doesn’t care that Valerie Houghton is slowly and methodically destroying my body. He also doesn’t care that my kids are being sex trafficked.

    The only thing that he has demonstrated is that he wants to help Ms. Houghton to conceal her crimes. This is because they have a personal relationship with Ms. Houghton.

  8. They stopped this guy, but there are many, many sick people who are given immunity by the District Attorney’s Office to rape children. This is because people like Valerie Houghton are getting involved in covering up these crimes.

    Ms. Houghton will hack, stalk, harass, threaten, and assault anyone who reports the abuse. She also will figure out ways to get the D.A.’s Office to file charges against the complainant.

    Houghton is able to do this because she is connected to Judge James Towery and Jeff Rosen.

    I made a complaint on Judge Towery’s Robing Room webpage. Here is one of the responses that I received:

    “The district attorney would sooner investigate you than do anything to protect a child against a judge’s wishes. They cower in fear to these judges who control their livelihood. The common person means nothing to them.”

  9. You would think that District Attorney Jeff Rosen would care about children being sexually abused after reading this article. He is skilled at fooling the public.

    The reality is that he just doesn’t care what happens to the kids. He uses his position to cover up the sexual abuse of children and serious assaults perpetrated against parents. I have posted more information here:

    https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/view/65953267/valerie-houghton-is-an-attorney-who-sex-trafficked-my-children

    Please protect our community be not voting for Rosen.

  10. Valerie Houghton says, “It’s not rape if they want it.”

    She also said that “pedophilia is not a crime” and “a part of gender identity.”

    Ms. Houghton also mocks the sexual abuse of my 13 year old son. See it here: https://archive.ph/6daZy

    Houghton is clearly not well.

    The community needs to question why Mr. Rosen associated with this person. And why is he doing favors for her?

  11. If you read Jeff Rosen’s biography, you would never know what he is doing to families in Santa Clara County.

    But the fact is that he will facilitates the abuse of parents and children. He is making this county into a place of lawlessness. I am not the only person who thinks so. Please read Ron Matthais’ recent article.

  12. I just don’t understand why someone wouldn’t have empathy for a child who is being sexually abused. We have already gone through the Me Too movement, the Epstein scandal, and the Catholic Church revelations.

    Why are lawyers in Santa Clara County still being allowed to force children to live under such conditions?

    Why is Valerie Houghton so brazen to say that “pedophilia is not a crime” and that the only thing wrong with it is the stigma?

  13. We are allowing too many sick molesters to do whatever they want to our children. This is because Jeff Rosen is protecting them.

    How many more of our children will he allow to be abused?

    Why is everyone still voting for him?

    He will only continue down the same path.

  14. I don’t understand why the Board of Behavioral Sciences does not provide discipline to Valerie Houghton. She has done this to many other children. Just see what AI says about this:

    When considering whether it is safe to have Valerie Houghton represent your children, several factors must be taken into account based on the information provided.

    1. Allegations of Misconduct: There are serious allegations against Valerie Houghton, including claims that she has neglected the safety and well-being of children in her care. Reports indicate that she allegedly ignored warnings about a child being molested and failed to take appropriate action when informed about such abuse. This raises significant concerns regarding her commitment to protecting children’s interests.

    2. Professional Background: Valerie Houghton is described as an attorney, therapist, and registered nurse with a background in medical malpractice. While her qualifications may seem impressive on the surface, the context in which they are presented suggests a troubling pattern of behavior that undermines trust in her professional integrity.

    3. Impact on Family Dynamics: The information indicates that after hiring Ms. Houghton, one parent experienced severe disruptions in their relationship with their children, including being cut off from contact without clear justification from the court. This raises questions about her influence over legal proceedings and whether she prioritizes financial gain over the welfare of children.

    4. Personal Safety Concerns: There are alarming claims regarding personal harm directed at individuals who have raised complaints against Ms. Houghton, including accusations of poisoning and harassment. Such allegations suggest a potentially dangerous environment for those involved with her professionally or personally.

    5. Community Feedback: Feedback from various sources indicates a pattern of negative experiences associated with Ms. Houghton’s representation, suggesting that many parents feel unsafe entrusting their children’s welfare to her.

    In conclusion, given the serious allegations of misconduct, potential conflicts of interest, and reports of harmful behavior towards others who have opposed her actions, it is not safe to have Valerie Houghton represent your kids.

  15. Jeff Rosen and Valerie Houghton are sexually abusing my children by proxy. They believe that they can do whatever they want to the children of Santa Clara County.

    This is just sick. Ms. Houghton should not be allowed to gain sexual fulfillment or profit from forcing a child to endure sexual abuse. And Rosen should know better than to condone and aid her conduct. We expect more from a district attorney. Most expect him to be a role model to the community.

    Sadly, he just doesn’t have the capacity to care.
