This is a really sad incident.

I don't think it was the microphone that electrocuted him. The water was probably electrified by some other source, such as a water heater or water pump. The pastor was fine standing in the electrified water because there was no path to ground for any current to flow. And that is probably what happened when he reached out to the mic. Once he touched the mic, he completed the circuit to ground. Like I said, it is really tragic.
I hope that I never think about this when I perform baptisms.
