A member of the LGBTQ+ advocacy group Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence who has previously participated in Drag Queen Story Hour was arrested after witnesses alleged he masturbated in public for an hour.
The arrest
Clinton Monroe Ellis-Gilmore, 53, is a member of the group, which created a stir after it was disinvited – and then re-invited – to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Pride Night over protests from conservatives and Catholics.
Ellis-Gilmore was arrested at Table Bluff County Park in Loleta, California, on August 12 after police had received reports of a man ‘exposing himself in the driver’s seat of a parked vehicle.’
According to numerous witnesses, Ellis-Gilmore had been at that location for approximately one hour, sitting in his truck with the door open, masturbating,’ around 6:40 p.m., a report from the Humboldt County sheriff’s office said.
Ellis-Gilmore, who posed for a mugshot without wearing a shirt, did not appear to be directing his actions at anyone in particular.

The conduct does not appear to have been directed at anyone in particular.’
What witness says
A witness told The Daily Wire that Ellis-Gilmore made no attempt to hide his ‘playing with himself.’
‘Well this is f***ed up,’ witness Randy Fleek said of his reaction to Ellis-Gilmore. ‘It’s obvious. You cannot help but see this guy, he’s not hiding it. He wants everyone to see what he’s doing.’
Fleek alleged Ellis-Gilmore was completely naked and happy to see the officers when they arrived.
‘There’s something wrong with that man. He’s got a weird f***ing desire to show off to the public, to anybody that wants to look at him,’ Fleek said.
‘He puts himself in a position and in a spot that you can’t help but look at the son of a b***h.’
Ellis-Gilmore, according to his social media posts, is an active member in his Oregon-based chapter of the Sisters and has even participated in drag time story hour.
The suspect also has several posts that are sexually charged and one that even says: ‘Be gay, hail Satan.’
