KINGSPORT — A hearing for a Coeburn pastor charged with indecent exposure on April 8 has been postponed again.

John Franklin McCarroll, 65, 2306 E. First Ave., Big Stone Gap, is now scheduled to be in court on Aug. 6 for a hearing before Kingsport General Sessions Judge Duane Snodgrass.

McCarroll was arrested April 8 on an indecent exposure charge. The arrest occurred during an undercover investigation by Kingsport Police Department vice detectives at the public restrooms at Riverfront Park on Netherland Inn Road.

The investigation was conducted in response to reports of lewd and lascivious acts at the restrooms, according to police.

Sullivan County Assistant District Attorney Adam Moore said McCarroll’s court date was postponed Thursday because the vice detective who arrested him was out of town.

According to statements from the detectives, McCarroll allegedly exposed himself through a hole between two stalls.

The Web site for Trinity Life Center, 9829 Norton-Coeburn Road, Coeburn, lists McCarroll and his wife, Martha McCarroll, as pastors of the church.
