TX Pastor likes the prostitution

Another sad story from the hyper religious state of Texas.

Barry Allen Lovely  ...A member of the Marshall Planning and Zoning Commission was among 20 people who were arrested during a prostitution sting Thursday. Barry Allen Lovely, 45, also is the owner of Barry Lovely Bail Bonds and has served as pastor of Corinth Baptist Church, both in Marshall.

I can hear the excuse now. Lovely is an important man, with big needs....

He's still a hypocrite.

This is not only in texas it is in Pennsylvania too! OMG! Don't even get me started! I've had a bail bondsman pursuing me for months! He is married with children! Calls and emails me regularly!

Oh, mine is a man of faith as well, and a Republican.

I think that it is ridiculous how everyone is judging Mr. Lovely. Are you without sin? If so, cast the first stone. Mr. Lovely is a very dear friend to me and I am very upset with how the media is trying to defame his character. In his line of profession he gets out people from all walks of life. Everyone that goes to jail is not a bad person. At the time that this event took place Mr. Lovely was trying to capture an individual who did not appear for court leaving him to have to pay a bond forfeiture. He kept telling the officers that he was there to have an individual arrested who did not appear for court leaving him to pay bond forfeiture. He had all the documentation in his vehicle to verify why he was there. The officers did not believe him and refused to hear anything that he had to say and arrested him. Again I say, this was done to totally defame his character because of the power and prestige he has in a small prejudice town. Because he is a very successful black man in this small town the whites hate to see such success. Why would he jeopardize his livelihood, prestige, integrity, self-image for prostitution? He is innocent because he did exchange money for sex of any kind, nor did he go to the room, nor did he agree to have sex of any kind with this prostitute. So how is this prostitution? This to shall pass. He's going to come out of this and his life, family and business will be blessed more than ever before!!!!! You people need to get the facts before you try to judge.

BARRY IS A REPUTABLE PERSON IN OUR COMMUNITY AND WE LOVE HIM REGARDLESS OF HOW OTHERS IS BEING JUDGEMENTAL. WHETHER HE DID IT OR NOT WHO CARES. THERE ARE OTHER OIFFICIALS IN HARISON COUNTY THAT HAS PLENTY OF SKELETONS IN THEIR CLOSET. THIS SITUATION IS JUST HARMLESS!!!!! NOTHING ILLEGAL WAS DONE!!!! SOME PEOPKLE LIKE TO SEE THEIR COCKINESS AND THE POINT IS STILL NOT REACHED. MAYBE THE OFFICER THAT ARRESTED HIM WAS JEALOUS OF HIS PROFESSIONAL STANCE IN SOCIETY. WE STILL LOVE YA REV. LOVELY...

Anon - what does my sin have to do with Mr. Lovely trying to rent a girl?

Why talk about stones when the real verse is "you shall know him by his fruit". His fruit is corrupt.

Everyone who goes to jail is not a bad person - what does that have to do with a man you tried to buy a prostitute?

He gets his day in court. I'm willing to wait to hear the story. However, he gets to answer "why did you try to give a prostitute money?" - it should make for a good show.

What does the color of his skin matter? It was not reported in the press. I have no idea what his race is.

A black man is going to be our next president. "Whites" - a term I have not heard used in the pejorative in a long time, have no interest in keeping black men down. That story died a long time ago.

He did not get arrested for having sex with a prostitute. He was arrested for solicitation. That’s trying to have sex for money.

I can go on - I fear you are too stupid to understand.

oh good lord... do you really think it was one cop who busted Lovely? It was a sting. They setup a girl, men like lovely walk/drive up, and offer to pay for a blowjob. A cop takes him down and books him.

Nobody cares what he does for living until after they find out he's pastor. It's then that the excuses fly.

My name is Brian and I know Barry Lovely personally. He was a pastor and also a house parent at East Texas Open Door when I was a child there in the 90's. "Mr. Lovely," was then a sexual pervert and I can assure you he is not who he comes across as. I could go into a lot of detail... but ive tried to put those years behind me. He is not a good person.
