A Catholic priest is under investigation for allegedly starting a years-long relationship with a 17-year-old stripper — and paying her hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep quiet about it.
Robert Sullivan, 61, is on leave as pastor of Our Lady of Sorrows Church in Homewood, Alabama, after he was publicly accused of initiating a relationship with Heather Jones, now 33, when she was a vulnerable teenager in 2009.
Jones said in a letter to the Diocese of Birmingham — and shared with the Guardian — that she first met Sullivan while she was dancing at a strip club he frequented.
While tipping her, he offered her $273,000 to sign a non-disclosure agreement in exchange for “an ongoing relationship that would include financial support in exchange for private companionship,” Jones alleged, telling the Guardian that the agreement included sex.
Jones, who was raised in foster care due to her mother’s “severe neglect,” said she “was hesitant but ultimately agreed due to his persistence and the state [of mind] I was in,” according to her letter to the diocese.
Days later, she received two wire transfers of $136,500 each under the name of an attorney’s office, she alleged.
Sullivan, initially posing as a doctor, took her out to shop, eat, drink and stay at hotels in at least six different Alabama cities over the course of the relationship, which lasted until this year, she alleged.

Well, at least it’s a girl.
Well. At least it wasn’t a nine year old boy. I suppose that is progress.
LOL, just seconds apart...!
Where are the pics?
Asking for a friend.
J.K. 🤣
16 year relationship and: “Jones said she felt compelled to go public with the allegations because Sullivan works so closely with families and their children at his church.” He must have balked on paying for the latest BBL.
Some of these priests are real horn dogs
“Heather Jones, now 33, when she was a vulnerable teenager in 2009.“
A vulnerable stripper, who bilked 136k out of him. Vulnerable is not a word I would ever apply to a stripper. She was the very definition of a predator as she waved those sugar tits in the face of a man she thought was a doctor.
“Vulnerable”…. the little wide-eyed waif. Lol
What I want to know is whether she’s a biological girl or a boy pretending to be female.
My thought exactly. At Catholic priests like girls now. Although the priest grossly overpaid his sugar baby. Where did he get the 236k? Somebody better check the bingo money.
Where does a priest get $273,000?
And the beat goes on
I went to the posted story to see the pics of the waif. Vulnerable…. the very picture of “vulnerable“ lol
That’s one hard jezebel there.
Wait, there are heterosexual priests too??
“Bless me, Sugar Daddy, for I have sinned...”
Oh look!
Another pervy Pastor-
G-d is in His Heaven, and we will all face judgement.
Of that I am certain.
All the rest is people scamming for your money.
“Where does a priest get $273,000?”
It sounds like the flock got fleeced.
Lol.
“Vulnerable is not a word I would ever apply to a stripper” —wow, that suggests a very sheltered life if you cannot imagine a vulnerable stripper.
This is so disappointing. It’s not my parish, but my family and I have attended Mass there many times.
