Two men who accused New Birth's Bishop Eddie Long of sexual misconduct in a lawsuit say they continue to struggle even after reaching an undisclosed settlement. Jamal Parris tells Channel 2 Action News that he and Spencer LeGrande, and perhaps the other accusers, plan to write a tell-all book.
"I would love to pull the trigger," Parris says. "I would love to take pills and go to sleep and not have to worry about anything. But I can't. I have a kid on the way."
He says a book full of 10 years of details from each person would be full of "wows" and "oh my Gods." LeGrande adds, "You ain't ready for the secrets."
Long has denied the allegations of the young men, who say they are all straight and that they never had intercourse with the pastor. LeGrande and Parris share a home in Florida, paid for by their settlement.
Seven people have been arrested for stealing from their Henry County neighbor--and one of the suspects is a cop. The woman had moved out of the Eagle Lake subdivision home but left some things behind for storage and a later yard sale. Henry County Police Major Jason Bolton explains the seven went inside and carted out boxes filled with clothes and other household items. Bolton says the suspects claimed they thought she'd been evicted and that's why they helped themselves to her things. All seven face felony burglary charges. Sgt. David Ferguson is now on administrative leave pending the outcome of an internal investigation.
