Tulsa Pastor Arrested In OKC On Lewdness Charge

OKLAHOMA CITY -- An executive committee member of the Southern Baptist Convention was arrested on a lewdness charge for propositioning a plainclothes policeman outside a hotel, police said.

Lonnie Latham, senior pastor at South Tulsa Baptist Church, was booked into Oklahoma County Jail Tuesday night on a misdemeanor charge of offering to engage in an act of lewdness, police Capt. Jeffrey Becker said. Latham was released on $500 bail Wednesday afternoon.

Latham, who has spoken out against homosexuality, asked the officer to join him in his hotel room for oral sex. Latham was arrested and his 2005 Mercedes automobile was impounded, Becker said.

Calls to Latham at his church were not immediately returned Wednesday.

When he left jail, he said:

"I was set up. I was in the area pastoring to police."

There is a spot on the Church's web site where you can submit prayer requests. I think i got one. http://www.southtulsabaptist.org/Contact/Prayer.asp

2. He was set up??
How?? I seriously doubt the officer made him have oral sex. Oh, right. It was actually the devil, in form of a cop, testing the poor pastor's faith. Huh, guess he failed, didn't he. lol

3. I heard Stephanie Miller talking about this this morning.
The article says he could have to spend up to a year in prison. I bet he'd get to "pastor to police" often in the big house!

Why is it always the right-wing guys (more particularly the right-wing religious guys) who get caught doing shit like this?
