Man uses church equipment to view porn
AMES, Iowa (AP) - Second-degree burglary charges have been filed
against an Ames man who broke into a church where he allegedly used
the institution's electronic equipment to watch pornography.
Police allege 55-year-old Charles E. Bentley broke into the
First Christian Church on Thursday. After gathering items from
around the building, he is believed to have gone to the basement to
spend the night.
Police summoned to the church Friday by staff, found Bentley
trying to haul away a garbage can filled with food, kitchen
utensils, clothes, electronic equipment and a 26-inch flat-screen
television.
Police Cmdr. Mike Brennan says Bentley used the electronic
equipment to watch pornographic movies that were found on him when
he was arrested.
Bentley is being held at the Story County Jail in lieu of
$10,000 bond.
