A woman in Selmen, Tennessee was arrested for assaulting her pastor.
She’s 63.
She did it because she thought he had “the demon in him.”
Just watch the video:
Last year, Mount Zion Baptist Church got a new pastor. Not everyone was happy with the selection. Evidently, this caused some sort of rift within the small 30-person church.
So member Ina Garrett hit the pastor in the head with her Bible. (To knock the demon out of him, obviously.) Pastor Leon Taylor pressed charges, and Garrett was arrested on charges of assault.
There is no word on what exactly Taylor did to piss off an elderly woman enough to smack him in the head, but apparently he isn’t taking the hint and he is staying put in his pulpit. Probably something about turning the other cheek.
Tune in next week to see if she hits that one too!
