Cheap Trick

How Cheap Can You Get?This would be just another Republican - Baptist - minister - and - a - prostitute story, were it not for the apparent fact that the Republican - Baptist - minister in question got caught because he was such a shameless cheapskate.

Reports WSOC-TV:

KANNAPOLIS, N.C. — Former state legislator Coy C. Privette, a Cabarrus County commissioner and retired Baptist minister, was charged Thursday with aiding and abetting prostitution, authorities said.

Privette, 74, was charged with six counts of misdemeanor aiding and abetting prostitution by renting a hotel room and paying for sexual acts, according to State Bureau of Investigation Agent Kevin Canty. Tiffany Denise Summers, 32, of Salisbury, was charged with six counts of misdemeanor prostitution, Canty said.

Privette was arrested at his Kannapolis home at about 7:40 a.m. Thursday by agents with the State Bureau of Investigation, said Department of Justice spokeswoman Noelle Talley.

. . .

Police said officers were investigating a forged check case, which led them to the prostitution charges. Privette on two occasions allegedly paid the prostitute with checks then reported those checks as stolen, officials said.

Talk about getting stiffed!

But here’s the real kicker: “Privette also serves as the president of the Christian Action League of North Carolina…” — an “affiliate” of what we consider the nastiest organization set up for the sole purpose of harassing homos: the American Family Association.

*snort!*
