Oklahoma minister Walter Eugene Brazington Jr. has been arrested for running a prostitution ring with a self-described “Aryan woman.” Brazington disguised his service as a massage parlor and used his church’s phone to set up “appointments.”

Brazington was charged with “procuring for prostitution and possession of a firearm while in the commission of a felony,” according to the Tulsa World. He tried to “encourage, induce or persuade women to become inmates of a house of prostitution,” the charges state.

Also arrested was Tiffany Ann Roach, one of Brazington’s employees at the massage parlor. Roach describes herself as an “Aryan woman” with “white girl pride.” She told investigators she was HIV+ during the raid and was arrested for exposing others to an infectious disease.

HIV criminalization laws are highly controversial and have been condemned by medical professionals and activists alike because it encourages people not to get tested. Most laws say a person must know they are HIV positive before they can be charged with knowingly exposing others.

Brazington is listed as an apostle and prophet for the All Nations Evangelical Team. The address for the ministry, Brazington’s home, was searched by police as part of the investigation. Ministry officials say Brazington founded four churches and three schools during his time with the group.

All pages referencing Brazington on the group’s website have now been deleted.

Brazington posted bail and was released. Roach is still being held in lieu of a $6,000 bond.
