I guess Bishop Eddie Long can’t catch a break! It has been over a year since the whole scandel involving himself and 5 of his accusers. Now that the millions of dollars have been settled in the designated pockets, Mr. Long is now demanding a partial refund from 3 of his accusers after discovering their breach in contract:
The letter, sent this week by the Atlanta law firm Drew Eckl & Farnham, alleges that Jamal Parris, Spencer LeGrande and Centino Kemp violated terms of a confidentiality agreement outlined in the settlement with Long and New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. The firm is seeking at least $900,000 already paid the three accusers, according to people involved in the settlement but not authorized to speak publicly. That figure is a portion of the total settlement with the three men. [Source]
The letter apparently outlines Long’s “demand for arbitration”, though no legal documents were filed. Atlanta litigator Hayden Pace says, “The letter could simply be a threat. No one’s going to turn over the money just simply because you’ve asked for it. You’re going to have to earn it back by establishing your right to it in the courts.” (oop…)
In related news, Bishop Eddie Long added to his legal woes and recently reached a settlement in a failed bank lawsuit after he and his partners failed to return the money used to pursue a real estate venture:
Long and two partners in West Indies Holding Co. LLC, a venture took out a $2 million loan from a Macon bank for a Jonesboro commercial property that includes Omni Hoops & Fitness gymnasium. The bank later failed.
State Bank & Trust, which acquired the failed bank, filed suit in October 2010 in State Court of DeKalb County to recover the remaining balance of $1.9 million, plus interest and fees. [Source]
In the words of the Funky Dineva, can we please get a donation for Mr. Bishop Eddie Long? Watch the video below, but start at 2:06 & 4:15 mark to get my drift. LOL)
Oh Lord…
Guess what? Your ass wouldn’t be going through this to begin with if you wasn’t a damn pervert so you get what you get! STFU!
Um, I agree… to an extent. However, a legal agreement is a legal agreement. You don’t get to take the money and break the rules. To my understanding, they have a book deal in the works anyway. So they are either really trying to tell their story for the good of others ORRRRR they realized they could get a bigger paycheck. Either way, I am quickly becoming disgusted with EVERYONE involved, even the “victims.”
@ AMEN!!
I total agree It’s just something about these boys ain’t right!! I been saying this about them when the story first came out. I think it’s all about how gives them the most money. I’m not taking up for the Bishop. But you are so right a legal agreement is a legal agreement.
who gives them the most money!!…sorry
IS THAT IDOMIND/JUDAH?
lmfaoooooooooo
Hold up wait a minute let me put my 2cent in it!
Shouldn’t he be practicing what he preach? Forgiveness??
U absolutely suck!
LMFAO! This is complete comedy. I think its very amusing that he though his ass was out of hot water. Karma works in mysterious ways hunni! Either way I see it, his ass is going to jail for something. This also explains why he is asking for the money back, to give it to someone else!
Yeah, he thought the money would quiet them, but when something like this happens, the money is good for a minute but the memories you just cant shake and need to get it out. They needed the money but need to get the memories out more. Their money issues is how he manipulated them, I guess they see the same scenario inthe settlement. Kinda makes me believe them even more because the money could not quiet them. Like the memories are eating away at them. I hope they give back the money and tell their story,hopefully the truth.
You know you are so caramelapple!
I’m tired of hearing about this pervert ass nigga. Leave your wife, get a dude, be satisfied and stop messing with young boys.
I think they will ALL get whats coming to them in the end. If he did it, then he should suck it up and learn from it and try to gain forgiveness! As to those greedy boys, it will come back on them because they only came public just for money and would not have otherwise if he were still spoiling them. I guess money can take their so called PAIN away that quick since they had it so hard during that time. Yeah right! All those boys are gay and loved what that man was doing for them, and when he stopped, they were pissed!
If I was Eddie Long…I would LET IT GO!!! As a preacher, bishop or whatever you claim to be or preach! LET GOD FIGHT YOUR BATTLE
Wow, I say they need to let it be known, people need to overstand that they can not leave there children with people just because they have a nice label! Remember they put them selves around kids so they can prey on them! My mom never trusted any body just because of who they where. Preying on boys who wanted to bond with a male b/c they didn’t have close relationships with there dads is so devilish!
I don’t consider 18 year old men to be victims #imjustsayin I have heard they are all now living as gay men, so they must have liked it! As a grown woman at 18 there is no way in hell unless bound in chains a with a gun to my head could another female make me have any type unwanted sexual contact, these men saw $ signs let’s face the music they are in no shape or form a victim!
who cares the real victims are his wife and church memebers this man is married with children! preching fiery anti gay sermons and all along fucking young boys in the azz in the church nuff said
As stated these were not boys all were over the age of legal consent! 18! I don’t consider his members, family or children to be victims. A sin is a sin, he is liable for himself…he will stand before God alone not with his memebers and family; his wife was already considering divorce which leaves me to believe they were well aware of “something” being wrong
yuck i dont believe or support anything this child Predator has to say….just nasty
I am SO through with him! Never liked his preaching from the time I moved to Atlanta. Something wasn’t right all those years ago and TADA…here it is! Just killing his witness. A darn shame…
