Another story of Baptist depravity

Pastor John K. Lawlor, 54, of Everett's First Baptist Church, was arrested for soliciting sex from a woman he thought was a 16-year-old girl. He allegedly showed up at the rendezvous with $200 and a box of condoms.

In the email conversation that followed, the detective pretended to be a 16-year-old girl who wanted to be paid for sex, according to court documents. Lawlor allegedly requested photographs and asked about the presumed girl’s price and availability, court documents say.
