Broken Arrow man used his ministry's phone number in ads to recruit prostitutes, authorities say
Raided massage parlor reportedly was run by evangelist
By Harrison Grimwood | Tulsa World | Nov 29, 2017

Investigators suspect that Brazington was the previous owner of two other massage parlors in Tulsa and Broken Arrow. Brazington filed a police report in January 2015 in Broken Arrow that listed one of the parlors as his business. He alleged that he had learned that three of his employees were engaging in prostitution, according to the affidavit.

One of the fired employees reportedly worked at the parlor on Ninth Street.

The All Nations Evangelistic Team website states that Brazington has established four churches and three schools and served in leadership roles for ministerial associations. It says Brazington has also worked in law enforcement and food service, as a bodyguard and as a bus driver.

Police said in the affidavit that Brazington told the undercover operative that he was at one time a bodyguard for presidents, heads of state and celebrities and that he was a decorated police officer.
