What a surprise; a delinquent evangelist preacher in jail for sex crimes and his “enforcer” on the run. I wonder what the numb-nuts who threw their money away by giving it to these criminals in the name of Jesus are feeling knowing they were taken for fools by these so-called messengers of God? TGO

Magistrate judge delays civil trial accusing evangelist Tony Alamo of abuse
TEXARKANA, Ark. (AP) — A federal magistrate judge has delayed the civil trial against evangelist Tony Alamo over alleged abuse at his ministries.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Barry Bryant indefinitely put off Alamo’s trial, which was set to begin Oct. 25. Bryant granted the delay at the request of Alamo’s lawyers and the lawyers for plaintiffs Spencer Ondrisek and Seth Calagna.
The plaintiffs have already won a $3 million judgment against John Kolbek, who was accused of being Alamo’s “enforcer” and disciplinarian at the evangelist’s religious compound in Fouke. Kolbek never appeared in court and remains a fugitive.
Alamo is serving a 175-year prison sentence after being convicted of five counts of transporting young girls across state lines for sex. He is appealing that conviction.
