A teenager testified in the Arkansas evangelist sex case
A teenage girl who said evangelist Tony Alamo married her at age 11 said he picked her because she looked “very innocent to him.”
The girl, now 17, testified Friday afternoon in Alamo’s trial on charges he took underage girls across state lines for sex.
The teen is the final alleged victim listed in the 10-count indictment to testify.
The girl said Alamo had sex with her in the back bedroom of his large touring bus in 2004.
She added that Alamo locked the door and the bus’ sounds blocked out the noise he made.
As she testified, Alamo fell asleep twice.
One of his lawyers woke him the second time after seeing a reporter watching him.
The trial until 8:30 a.m. Monday.
