A Catholic priest has confessed to filming a threesome with dominatrices on a church’s altar.
Travis Clark, 39, pleaded guilty to a felony obscenity charge after committing the “demonic” act inside the place of worship in Pearl River, USA.
The disgraced priest was caught by a passer-by who spotted the lights were still on at night in Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church.
But when they peeped through the window, they saw Clark half-nak3d as he romped with two women in September 2020.
The ladies, named Mindy Dixon and Melissa Cheng, were dressed in corsets and high-heeled boots during the steamy act.
Cops were called to the church and found a tripod-mounted camera that had been filming the priest and professional dominatrices.
They also discovered sex toys and stage lighting, reports New York Post.
Police confirmed although the act was consensual, the trio were arrested on obscenity charges because they were in view of the public.
On the evening of the incident, Mindy Dixon had reportedly boasted that she was going to “defile a house of God” on social media.
Melissa Cheng, an OnlyFans model who describes herself as a “Chinese/German 5’11 Goddess”, previously branded the witness a “snoop.”
She set up a GoFundMe account because she was too ‘disturbed to work’ after being caught.
She said at the time: “My privacy gets violated and I get in trouble.
“Maybe people shouldn’t snoop in windows and then complain about what they see, especially at night. Ridiculous.
“I’m so shaken up, I keep having nightmares and panic attacks and literally can’t work on anything. I feel overwhelmed with anxiety from this ordeal.”
She added on her fundraising page: “The fact that I am being vilified like this is quite frankly, appalling. “I understand that people may be upset by this situation, but that does not make this conduct illegal or criminal in any way.”
Clark has been defrocked. He has also been slapped with a suspended three-year sentence of supervised probation and a $1,000 fine, according to the Advocate.
The altar was burned following the shamed threesome, said the archbishop.
Travis Clark, 39, formerly of St. Peter and Paul Church in Pearl River, La., received a suspended three-year prison sentence, three years of supervised probation and was order to pay a $1,000 fine.
Clark had already paid $8,000 in restitution to the Archdiocese of New Orleans after Archbishop Gregory Aymond declared the altar desecrated and ordered it burned and replaced two years ago.
Clark’s attorney, Michael Kennedy, questioned the fairness of the state’s insistence his client plead guilty to a felony.
“I believe my client is far less likely to find himself in a similar situation ever again,” Kennedy said. “Wherever life takes Mr. Clark from here, I hope it finds him well and able to put this fully behind him.”
The women who participated in the sex tape – 30-year-old Melissa Cheng of Alpharetta, Ga., and 43-year-old Mindy Dixon of Kent, Wash. – pleaded guilty in July to misdemeanor counts of institutional vandalism, the outlet reported.
They each were sentenced to two years’ probation and spared jail time.
