| Former Swinger Reality TV Star Arrested in Shocking Minor and Animal Sex Case. |
Tony McCollister, a former reality TV personality once known for appearing on a controversial swinger show, is back in the spotlight for a far more serious reason. He was arrested in Ohio this week and now faces disturbing criminal charges involving a minor and an animal.
McCollister previously appeared on A&E’s short-lived reality series Neighbors with Benefits in 2015. The show followed the lives of swinger couples and quickly drew public criticism, leading to its cancellation after only two episodes.
According to authorities, McCollister was taken into custody in Warren County on Tuesday. He has been charged with pandering obscenity involving a minor and engaging in sexual conduct with an animal, both considered serious offenses under Ohio law.
During his initial court appearance, the judge set his bail at approximately 3.9 billion rupiah, which McCollister reportedly paid. Despite being released, the court imposed strict conditions, including an order prohibiting him from having any contact with children or animals.

As part of the ongoing investigation, law enforcement officials confirmed that all of McCollister’s pets were seized from his home. The Warren County Sheriff’s Office stated that the animals are currently safe and receiving proper care. While officials have not disclosed full details, local media reports indicate the alleged acts involved two dogs.
McCollister is scheduled to return to court on December 30, where the case is expected to move forward. So far, he has not made any public statements or responded to media requests for comment.
The case has also drawn attention to his personal life. His former wife, Diana McCollister, confirmed that she is no longer married to him and has distanced herself from the situation.
Once known for his controversial appearance on reality television, Tony McCollister now faces a very different reality as he navigates the legal consequences of these allegations. The investigation remains ongoing, and further developments are expected in the coming weeks.
