Dead Reverend's Rubber Fetish
Autopsy: Pastor found in wet suits after autoerotic mishap

OCTOBER 8--An Alabama minister who died in June of "accidental mechanical asphyxia" was found hogtied and wearing two complete wet suits, including a face mask, diving gloves and slippers, rubberized underwear, and a head mask, according to an autopsy report. Investigators determined that Rev. Gary Aldridge's death was not caused by foul play and that the 51-year-old pastor of Montgomery's Thorington Road Baptist Church was alone in his home at the time he died (while apparently in the midst of some autoerotic undertaking). While the Montgomery Advertiser, which first obtained the autopsy records, reported on Aldridge's two wet suits, the family newspaper chose not to mention what police discovered inside the minister's rubber briefs. Aldridge served as the church's pastor for 16 years. Immediately following his death, church officials issued a press release asking community members to "please refrain from speculation" about what led to Aldridge's demise, adding that, "we will begin the healing process under the strong arm of our Savior, Jesus Christ."

1. How in the world could he have hogtied himself like that?

Surely, someone else was involved in this.

[monktonman]

2. How did he hog-tie himself?

I mean, I suppose its possible, but they said he was alone
and dont expect foul play?

[Marrah_G]

15. People with this fetish have elaborate ways to rig things

Unfortunately for him (and others) it is very dangerous and frankly stupid to do without someone else there for safety reasons.

I do have to say I find it very suspect that they say he was alone. It's possible, it's just really not probable.

People do stupid shit all the time though.

[monktonman]

22. Funny thing about that....

I recently reluctantly joined a gym.
I've been working out with free weights and a few weeks ago
had a nightmare that I was bench pressing and couldnt get the bar off of my
kneck and strangled myself.
I'm just trying to stay in shape and cant stand the muscle head bullshit
but at least theres someone around to spot me so I dont accidently
strangle myself.
With that in mind....next time I auto erotic strangle myself
I'll make sure I have a choking buddy around.

Could you imagine the conversation?
"hey, I'm gonna dress up in rubber and strangle myself later tonight. could you spot me?"

[Marrah_G]

28. Strange as it seems...there is a growing "underground" fetish community out there

Especially with the rapid growth of the internet.

Your last line did make me giggle though :)

[npincus]

3. Don't try this at home, kids!

[Kingshakabobo]

4. At least the underwear was "male underwear." What's the big deal?

[yellowcanine]

13. "Rubberized male underwear"????? I had no idea there was such a thing.

Oh my.

[Ganja Ninja]

5. These "family values" types are kinky as hell. n/t

[Nimrod2005]

6. Maybe he was born again? on the other side?

[acmavm]

8. Well, he left his wet suits and toys on this one.

[Nimrod2005]

12. I am thinking that's what needs to be done, that's how you prepare...

I am sure the good Lord has a bunch of toys over there

[mnhtnbb]

7. C'mon. He had a playmate. Get those cops from Law & Order SVU on it!

In fact the story will probably turn up in one of their shows later in the season.

[shain from kane]

9. "Jesus Christ" n/t

[cali]

10. Way, way, way too much information. n/t

[Blue-Jay]

11. His family probably had to sign for his stuff too.

Personal Effects: One yellow metal ring intact on left finger, one dildo

("one condom: soiled")

18. Thumbs up for the Blues Brothers reference!

:thumbsup:

25. I didn't pick my username because I like birds.

:D

[guitar man]

19. ROFL!

:rofl: :rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Marrah_G]

14. Who cares what he did in his own private life

I hate it when freepers make personal lives an issue and we shouldn't either.

Unless this minister was preaching missionary style sex and that everything else is evil then I don't see the issue here.

[libnnc]

20. I don't know of any Baptists who had previous associations with

Falwell who would look favorably on what the dearly departed practiced in his private life.

The deceased, a Baptist minister, had associated with Falwell according to another thread last night. Odds are, he did not preach "live and let live"

[guitar man]

21. I have little doubt

that being a southern baptist minister any preaching he did on the subject would probably not be far from that. The problem I have is these are the people that drive the right wing "moral majority" movement. It is continuously being revealed they don't live up to what they preach.

[JNelson6563]

23. He had worked for Falwell

Gary Aldridge graduated from Liberty University and later worked for the late Jerry Falwell.

http://www.wsfa.com/Global/story.asp?S=6707770

For some reason I am hard pressed to believe he preached tolerance of "alternative" *ahem* lifestyles.

16. Hmmmm...

Hog Tied, Condom covered dildo in anus, Maybe payback by formerly molested child...or...Accident....cmon...we need CSI!!

Edit to add....Arn't dildos against the law in Alabama?...Not only kinky sex...but a lawbreaker too.

[peekaloo]

30. definitely not an airtight case.

:hide:

[shain from kane]

17. Prepared for the Rapture or the next comet, except there wasn't a roll of quarters in his pocket.

[Totally Committed]

24. No offense, but do we HAVE to have these disgusting threads in GD????

WHy can't thy go in the Lounge, or in a specific forum of their own? I'm the first person to love to see Republican hypocrisy exposed, but I really don't necessarily need or want to know ever single disgusting detail.

Is it just me that feels this way?

Damn!

TC

[Blue-Jay]

27. The Lounge doesn't want it.

Especially since it was posted there two days ago.

[GoneOffShore]

29. Not in the Lounge, thank you very much!

We have more interesting things like kudzu, The Olive Garden and breast feeding pit bulls.

[WinkyDink]

26. Maybe he was a fan of "Red Meat":

31. The Front Page of the Church's Website Has the Following Images:

Little confusion, anyone?

[skypilot]

37. Too strange.

Especially that first one. And I love the fact that this was posted by a DUer with the screen name "Crisco".

[TlalocW]

32. Sounds like he was having a "session" with a dominatrix

And things went bad.

My other thought is what were his sermons like? The ministers (and congressmen) exposed as gay are normally the most vocally anti-homosexual in their sermons/political screeds because they think it takes the heat off. I wonder if this guy was all about denouncing fetish wear from the pulpit. That would be an interesting sermon.

33. Sex toys (including dildos) are illegal in Alabama (sez SCOTUS).

Lock him up and throw away the key. Er .. nevermind.

[deaniac21]

34. This kind of news is always hilarious!!!!

I'll bet his family and friends were taken down a couple of notches too. The biggest joke is tat they will always have to LIVE with it, HAR!

[Hamlette]

35. My favorite part is the the last line of the report:

After describing the two wet suits, rubber underwear, the 2 ties, 5 belts and 11 straps, there is this:

"Personal effects: One yellow metal ring intact on left finger, one dildo."

[BRB_TheFireball]

36. So where in the Bible does it talk about dildos? n/t

[Kurovski]

40. "No false idols."

[NashVegas]

38. kicking

for the night crowd.

[Vidar]

39. Not bad. Ratzinger's demise, however, should definitely

include some Nazi paraphernalia, which I understand is favored in certain (not all, by any means) s&m circles.
