A pastor of an Everett church is accused of trying to pay a teenage girl for sex.
Probable cause documents said 54-year-old John K. Lawlor responded to an online ad placed by a Seattle police vice detective posing as a 16-year-old girl.
Police said Lawlor believed he was chatting with the teen when he arranged to pay her $200 in exchange for sex.
