THE BRADDOCK TIMES
BRADDOCK, TX - A 29-year-old man who was accused of breaking into St. John's Presbyterian Church to use its phone to call a sex hotline was arraigned last night before Justice William Jennings. Antonio Davis, who has no permanent address, was arrested by Braddock County Sheriff's deputies yesterday afternoon when he was accused of breaking into St. John's Presbyterian Church on Marchetta Ave and using the church's phone to call a sex hotline number, Ugell said.

Pastor Franklin Kirby said Davis told deputies that he broke into the same church Friday for the same purpose and ran up an $837 phone bill.

Davis was charged with two-counts of burglary, felonies, and misdemeanors of possession of burglars tools and petty larceny. Justice Jennings was overheard saying "Why do these people waste my time on such petty charges?" In court, Jennings said "because of his two felony convictions in the past, Mr. Antonio Davis will be released and will return to court at 1:30 p.m. tomorrow to have the charges against him dropped."
