Tommy Tester Busted

Thomas Dale Tester aka “Tommy Tester”, the 58-year-old minister of Gospel Baptist Church in Bristol, Virginia and an employee of WZAP, a Christian radio station in Bristol has been busted for indecent exposure, DUI and violation of the open container law in Johnson City, Tennessee.

Reverend Tommy Tester

To make matters worse for this ‘man of the cloth’, it is alleged that the cloth he was wearing at the time of his arrest was a woman’s skirt and apparently not much more, as the police were called to the car wash where Tester was busted in response to a man exposing himself.

Police say that Tester got out of his car at the Belmont Car Wash and urinated in a wash bay in public view with children present.

A search of Tester’s car allegedly revealed an open bottle of vodka and empty Oxycodone prescription bottle.

It is further alleged that Tester offered to give the arresting officers oral sex, possibly in an attempt to ‘convert them’ or maybe just because Tester was allegedly wearing a skirt and felt slutish at the moment. We may never know.

Following his arrest Tester was released on $1,000 bond and set for a court hearing on October 25th.

Tester has been suspended from his job at the radio station and neither the church or Tester are commenting.

This case has to qualify as something bigger than a whoopsy or even bigger than a BIG whoopsy, something on the order of a holy whoopsy…
