A charge of patronizing prostitution against a local minister was bound to the Grand Jury without a hearing on Friday morning.
The Rev. Frank Jump of Signal Mountain appeared before General Sessions Court Judge Christie Sell.
He was one of those arrested last November in a prostitution sting.
The 69-year-old chaplain for Hospice earlier said he is innocent and was working on a book about street people. He said he was doing research for his project and never intended to have sex with the woman.
