We watched this guy during lunch for laughs for years, it was amazing how many fools enriched him and thought he was some savior and would cure/bless them from their maladies.



I'll give it to him, he was a good actor, he had us watching but we knew he was FOS !

It's always the ones pointing the fingers in society that are the guilty ones. Every, single, time....

21 year olds do sone dumb things, even religious 21 year olds.

But messing around with a 12 year old? Absolutely not. He knew better. That’s criminal behavior. I don’t care if it was 30 years ago. It was still criminal, vile, and awful.

Sadly religious leaders have a perverse incentive to protect their own. When those church leaders are all related, it’s even more extreme.

One sentence, two warning signs of a shady church. Female pastor and Pastor’s son (and his wife) is a Pastor.

Several decades ago, a friend's first wife became a member of one but was spreading rumors that my friend's 2nd wife had been a hooker. He called her up and said that this stops right now or else he was going to offer her preacher $50k to have a few minutes on Sunday to tell the congregation about how she loved to give BJ;s when they were in high school in the late 1950's. The rumors stopped immediately.

It was kissing and petting and not intercourse


Always hated the term petting. Sounds somehow worse.

So...she tried to extort him before she decided to go public?
You think a 21 year-old in a position of authority should be able to fondle 12 year-olds with impunity?

Let your daughter repeatedly be subject to that type of abuse and get back to us on that the perp should not pay.

You are a Bama fan so you might be accustomed to worse behavior.

She probably has had a fricked up life since the events, in some part probably because of the abuse. Therapy would be a good option for her and good therapy ain’t free.

If that piece of shite pedo “man of the cloth” was a true Man of God, he already would have reached out to her, apologized, and asked what she needed as to restitution. He deserves to be asked to make restitution. She did him a favor asking in private originally, to spare his reputation.

What is up with this? A fairly large local church just shut down after being rocked by a scandal. Some pastor had sexual relations with a 14 year old female. Sick.

I played bass/drums at a church and the Worship Pastor had an affair with the piano player, divorced his wife and threw her and her four kids on the street. He said some nasty things about me and others. Of course, he goes into hiding. I question the salvation of these kinds of people; I do not think that you can have a relationship with Jesus and behave this way. Sickening.

If he was fricking around with a 12 year old when he was in his 20s, there's almost certainly others.


Who looks at a 12 year old girl and gets sexually aroused? Even 12 year old boys don’t want anything to do with 12 year old girls. That’s still in the “they have cooties” age.
