Former ‘swinger’ reality star Tony McCollister ordered to stay away from pets & kids after shocking sex abuse charges

The ex-TV personality is accused of uploading child sexual abuse material to his Google account

A FORMER reality TV star has been arrested over shocking sex crimes and banned from going anywhere near his pets.

Ex-A&E personality Tony McCollister, 43, who briefly appeared on a show about swingers, was detained on child and animal abuse charges and taken into custody in Warren, Ohio on December 23.

The Neighbours with Benefits star has since been ordered to stay at least 500 feet away from the two dogs he allegedly abused, as per court records obtained by TMZ.

McCollister has also been banned from being around all animals and children.

Court documents specify that he cannot “force sexual relations” involving either minors or pets.

Following his arrest, Warren County Sheriff Barry Riley revealed both dogs were seized by deputies and are now safe.

The shocking case came to light over the weekend when it emerged McCollister had been arrested on disturbing sex crime charges in Ohio.

He was taken into custody in Warren County and charged with pandering obscenity involving a minor and engaging in sexual conduct with animals, according to WLWT.

Prosecutors allege McCollister uploaded child sexual abuse material to his Google account and committed acts involving two dogs he owned.

He was hauled before a judge last week and hit with a $250,000 (£185,000) bond as the sickening allegations surfaced.

McCollister reiterated: “The lifestyle isn’t for everyone. You’re not going to force your spouse into it and have it end well.

“There are a lot of negative things that go along with this but it can be a very positive thing if you approach it in an open honest way with open honest communication.”
