Hey, it was good enough for Isabella Peron.

Remembering the fiasco after Susan Alamo's death, Clinton wrote: "A couple of years later, he got involved with a younger woman. Lo and behold, God spoke to him again and told him Susan wasn't coming back after all, so he took her out of the glass box and buried her."

I thought it was because it was creeping out the dinner guests when he insisted they dine over her dead body.

That, or the new hottie drew the line at dusting her.

I'll go for the latter.

Speaking of Tony Alamo, the minister has been found on all charges.

[fortinbras]

Guilty on each of ten charges of child molestation, each with a maximum 10 year prison sentence. And I feel certain that the length of the sentence will be the least of his problems.

he might want to worry about the length of his cellmate's liberty tool

Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving or creepier individual.

Prior to his conviction, Tony Alamo posted the following on his website, dated July 17th. I expect we will be hearing more from the good Rev'rund and his followers:

PRESS RELEASE
From Tony Alamo
July 17, 2009
Regarding Government-Vatican Persecution vs. Tony Alamo

It is a violation of the US Constitution for the government to attack any religion, especially Christianity!! My trial is government vs. the Bible. The five young women who are falsely testifying against me have all been convinced to do so by the FBI.

The FBI paid all of their tuition to go to a place called Wellspring, which is a “deprogramming center.” Deprogramming is a nice word for hypnosis, brainwashing, mind-control, voodoo, black magic. Their testimony is not to be believed because it is not true, and they are not in their right mind. They are under a hateful spell of witchcraft. They (in court) have all said that I, Tony Alamo, said, “The Lord said you are to marry me.” This is all a lie. I never told that to any one of them. Their testimonies cannot be believed because they are all uniformly brainwashed. They (the young women) never contacted the FBI; the FBI contacted every one of them and gave them thousands of dollars and many gifts to lie for them. The FBI is against the Bible, Christianity, God, and all Christian churches.

The legal age of marriage is puberty. Webster’s Dictionary states childhood is the “state or time of being a child; state or time from birth or infancy to puberty or maturity.” Webster’s definition of puberty is “the age when one becomes capable to bear children, which is marked by maturing of the reproductive organs, with the onset of menstruation in the female; the period at which sexual maturity is reached.” The Bible says this as well.

God’s Word, the Bible, never condemns a man for having more than one wife!

Remember how they murdered, burnt up, the Christians at Waco, Texas! They are demonic. Witnesses for the FBI and all those they have paid to go to Wellspring are all saying the same thing, what they are told to say.

I expect we will be hearing more from the good Rev'rund

Only on his visiting days.

[Gregg]

Just curious, but has anyone ever seen Tony and Richard614 in the same room? They both seem like they're completely off the rails to me.

[Lambkin]

There is no shortage of brain-damaged losers in the world. I'm pretty sure Tony is "offline" at present.

Written by Deena on Nov-13-09 3:15pm

Tony Alamo just got sentenced to 175 years in prison after being found guilty of 10 counts of taking underage girls across state lines for sex. He received the maximum sentence in the case where 3 of his child "brides" testified against him. Sources say Alamo's attorney is planning to appeal the ruling.

I heard on the radio that he might retain access to a phone so he can continue to run his ministry. This man is sick.

We haven't found a way to outlaw megalomania.

Unless Tony is placed in protective isolation in prison, he will not be serving more than one or two years.

Child abusers are the lowest tier on the prison pecking order and have a strange pattern of suddenly becoming dead.

[fortinbras]

I feel certain that half his sentence will be remitted for good behavior.

He's not young enough to survive that long.

Seven women who alleged they were sexually abused as children by former Christian ministry tycoon Tony Alamo were awarded $525 million by an Arkansas judge this week after an Alamo church failed to respond to a lawsuit.

[grixit]

Makes sense. Even if a court appearance would give them the chance to lower the award, they'd risk thousands of their newer followers learning the queasy details about their founder, which would cause a serious drop in contributions.

[fortinbras]

I am not sure if Alamo ministries still has the clout, or congregation, it once had. That entire $525M may be only theoretical.
