Pastor accused of picking up prostitute

DAYTON — A Miamisburg clergyman was arrested Tuesday evening in Dayton after he allegedly paid a prostitute $20 for oral sex.

John Naylor, 65, is the pastor for visitation and senior adults at the First Church of God, according to the church’s website. He told officers he had picked up the woman in the 3200 block of East Third Street, took her to a home on King, where he paid her for the sex act.

Naylor told detectives he had picked up the woman and driven her to the house “and that was all,” according to the police report. When asked what might have transpired inside the house, Naylor said, “We made out.” Detectives suggested the activity went further than making out. Naylor then admitted to sex for money.

Naylor was taken to the county lockup. He faces possible misdemeanor prostitution-related charges when he makes his court appearance.

Telephone calls to the church office were not answered Wednesday.
