Priest recorded having group sex on altar of Pearl River church, police say; 3 arrested

The lights inside Saints Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church in Pearl River were on later than usual on Sept. 30, so a passerby stopped to take a closer look.

Peering inside, the onlooker saw the small parish's pastor half-naked having sex with two women on the altar, according to court documents. The women were dressed in corsets and high-heeled boots. There were sex toys and stage lighting. And a mobile phone was mounted on a tripod, recording it all.

The eyewitness took a video and called the Pearl River police, who arrived at the church and viewed that recording. Officers then arrested the Rev. Travis Clark, pastor of Saints Peter and Paul since 2019, on obscenity charges. 

The Archdiocese of New Orleans announced the priest's arrest Oct. 1 but would not give specifics about why he was arrested. Nor would the police.

New details, however, have emerged in court filings that paint a lurid picture of a priest recording himself engaged in sexual role play while desecrating a sacred place within the church. Public records additionally show that one of the women, Mindy Dixon, 41, is an adult film actor who also works for hire as a dominatrix. On a social media account associated with Dixon, a Sept. 29 post says she was on her way to the New Orleans area to meet another dominatrix "and defile a house of God."

True, there is that at least.

I miss the old days. Back then priests would be discreet, and keep mistresses out of Church property.

Isn't this the priest equivalent of having sex on your desk at work?

There are other denominations. Do not give up on God because of sinful priests

Freaky -Deaky type shit but the chicks weren’t half bad after a couple beers...they were of age and not little boys so the perp cleared that low expectation. May not amuse the hierarchy though.

I was an altar boy with a good buddy at 6 & 7 am services for 3 years.

Nothing like this went on. I was never molested nor invited to a party like this. After services we’d go down to the paper where we’d eat donuts, drink coffee and read the teletype news - right as it typed out.

Later we’d break into the our Catholic School (just a vent into the gym) to get warm.

Never mentioned that in confession - tell him where the vent was? Am I going to hell?

;-)

Right out of the book of Numbers. Ecumenism with the Moabites.

Now where did I put my spear?

Desecrating the Altar was a sick thing to do. “Father” is probably a Satanist.

“What were the charges?”

Don’t be surprised if theft arises; the perverts often fund their antics with parish funds.

The US Church is shrinking at a rapid pace; four of NY’s eight dioceses have already declared bankruptcy, and here in NJ the first of our five just did so. It is not a sustainable operating model; the perverts recruited over the past few decades will continue to drain Church coffers, and there are few replacement parishioners.

“He took the usual southern baptist scandal where the choir director gets caught cleaving the organ lady and kicked it up a notch.”

This story reminded me of the one Catholic girl I dated as a yoot.
Back in that day, good Southern Baptist that I was, I knew such a thing as Catholics existed, but was sure it was a New York/Boston thing. Never imagined such a group existed in Virginia.

Anyways, this gal had the whole confession thing figured out. Made a fine art of it. She said the thing was to to confess all and leave never intending to sin again. She grinned and said intent was the key. She never INTENDED to sin with me, she was just continually overcome by passion and lust.
Dating her was the wildest year of my yoothood. ; )

Please don't let BAD PRIESTS keep you from Church and Holy Communion and all the other Sacraments!!! The Church is HOLY.....some people in it are not.....but where your soul rests for eternity is up to you. God Bless You.
