DEFINITELY NOT GAY |
And despite having vowed to fight the sex allegations between him and four teenage their is apparently no reason to think megachurch preacher, Bishop Eddie Long is gay - especially now he's paid them off instead of fighting their claims.
We have no problem with gay men but it does seem strange to us that he chose not attempt to disprove their allegations that he used to his power to influence them into sexual relationships, but instead settled the lawsuit with money - possibly millions.
Former DeKalb County Prosecutor J. Tom Morgan told WGCL: "You can interpret that any way you want, but usually people do not settle cases unless there is some reason to do so.
"They had to reach a settlement if they did not want any statement by the Bishop on record."
Former New Birth members Spencer LeGrande, Anthony Flagg, Maurice Robinson and Jamal Parris filed civil lawsuits against Long last September.
The attorneys refused to comment on the case which their silence suggests part of the agreement is that no one talks about it.
"Nobody knows what the numbers are. I would be sure it's in the millions," Morgan added. He estimated that amount because that's what he said a Catholic church paid victims in a similar case that he prosecuted.
