Now I kno yall have heard about this Bishop Eddie Long case...this shit is crazy. If u dont kno about it then heres the tea......
The third suit was filed Wednesday afternoon in DeKalb County Superior Court, said a spokeswoman for attorney B.J. Bernstein.
Jamal Parris, a member of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, filed the suit against Long, the church and the Longfellows Youth Academy Inc.
The Longfellows Youth Academy? Yikes.
Parris and his mother joined the church in 2001 when he was 14.
Within two weeks, Long gave Parris his personal cell phone number, the suit alleges.
Their relationship intensified during the 2004-05 school year, with Long often inviting Parris to his guesthouse on Snapfinger Road.
“Initially, Long engaged in sexual touching during their encounters and then escalated the activity to oral sodomy and other acts of sexual gratification,” the suit reads. “Long would discuss the Holy Scripture to justify and support the sexual activity.”
Parris claims he left the church in 2009 “disillusioned, confused and angry.”
Oh boy. Details from the other two plaintiffs have been released too.
Attorney B.J. Bernstein, who is representing the three plaintiffs, claims Long abused his pastoral relationship with the men and convinced them that the sexual relationships were a “healthy component of [their] spiritual lives.”
Parris’ suit claims that Long took him on trips on his private jet as far away as Trinidad and Honduras.
On some of the trips with Robinson and Flagg, Long would use the alias “Dick Tracy” when he checked into hotels. According to online service Accurint, a Dick Tracey Long lives in Lithonia at the same address as Eddie L. Long.
The three suits each allege 11 counts, including fraud and negligence, against Long, the 25,000-member church and the Longfellows Youth Academy.
If you’re wondering why these men, who were minors when these acts allegedly happened, are filing civil suits rather than hollering at one-time to get some justice, it’s because the age of consent in the state of Georgia is 16. However, since some of these alleged incidents happened outside of GA, Bishop Eddie might still face criminal charges elsewhere.
The backlash from their allegations is starting to materialize, according to the Associated Press.
Campaign officials for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Roy Barnes say they have canceled a fundraiser that was to be hosted by a pastor at the center of a sexual coercion lawsuit.
Barnes spokesman Emil Runge says the event was canceled Tuesday, when the lawsuit involving two young men was first reported. The campaign would not say Wednesday if the event was scrapped before learning of the allegations against Bishop Eddie Long.
And the good Bishop Long is about to break his silence.
Long adamantly denies the allegations and has scheduled a news conference Thursday morning.
Long is also scheduled to discuss the allegations at 7:15 a.m. Thursday on The Tom Joyner Morning Show, according to a news release from the nationally syndicated radio show.
