Bishop Eddie Long’s Finances Put Under Microsope [VIDEO]

The rest is here:

Before Bishop Eddie Long came under fire for settling sexual abuse charges against him out of court when he vowed to fight them, Long’s finances were under scrutiny in a congressional investigation by Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley. WSB-TV starting looking into Long’s assets more than six months ago. Now with his wife Vanessa filing for divorce, Long’s finances are under the microscope. WSB-TV found very little paperwork because the church and its dozens of affiliated companies file very few public documents. Records show Long’s assets have been intertwined with New Birth’s assets for years, including New Birth paying approximately $200,000 in property taxes for Long and $85,000 in taxes for his private plane. Long’s financial troubles appear to be mounting. In addition to the undisclosed financial settlement to five young men who accused him of sexual abuse last summer, records show Long has agreed to pay nearly $2 million to settle a defaulted bank loan, he owes $200,000 to a developer, and in October church members sued Long for over $1 million in failed investments sold by a man he endorsed. WSB-TV requested an interview with Long, but a spokesperson told reporter Jodie Fleischer the bishop was too busy.

Wow….Man Sues Robbers For Stealing His Drug Stash

See the article here:

 This has to be another sign of the time now most people don’t get to sue the robbers who stole their drug stash. But we guess there’s a first time for everything! A man in California is planning to file a lawsuit against the men convicted of robbing him of six pounds of pot. Michael Steffens , 51, is seeking $18,000 in restitution, and the court is actually on his side! Steffens says he smokes marijuana for back pain. He wants the robbers to pay a high price for his loss! Meanwhile, the courts won’t be having any sympathy for this guy. Devante Saxton , 19, stupidly tried to make it past juvenile detention center security with five bags of weed on his person! Before going through the Illinois facility’s metal detector, this idiot emptied his pockets and placed his drugs in a bin to be scanned. He was arrested and charged with pot possession – obviously.

There’s an old saying that goes: “Real friends are there when you need them the most.” Well, a former associate of Nate Dogg says the singer’s friends turned their backs on him, even refusing to pay for his mounting medical bills. TMZ Reports Nate Dogg’s world-famous rap friends turned their backs on the singer when he needed them most … refusing to pitch in one cent towards his medical costs … this according Nate’s former associate, who’s on the hook for the $300k bill. TMZ broke the story … Nate’s estate AND a record label owner named David Michery … were sued by the medical facility where Nate lived from 2008 to 2010 after suffering a massive stroke. A judge recently ruled in favor of the facility, which means David needs to pay up … or else. Now, it could be that this guy is just bitter because he was stuck with the bill. It doesn’t seem likely that NO ONE would help Nate out in his time of need. What do you think?

Jay-Z and Beyonce Trademark Blue Ivy’s Name

See the rest here:

 The Washington Post reports that Jay Z and Beyonce’  have filed an application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect Blue Ivy ‘s name. The trademark will reserve her name for future use of items like “baby carriages, baby cosmetics and diaper bags.” Multiple applications for various trademarks of Blue Ivy’s name were submitted just days after her birth, so Jay and Bey were prompted by their legal team to trademark their daughter’s name. Fashion designer Joseph Mbeh submitted an application to trademark “Blue Ivy Carter NYC” on Jan. 11. Then on Jan. 20, another application for “Blue Ivy Carter Glory IV” was submitted, this time to be used to sell a line of fragrances. Both filings have since been denied. Officials have said since the name belongs to a “very famous infant” that consumers would falsely assume any products with her name were approved by the celebrity parents.

Pilar Sanders Sues Deion Sanders & Female “Friend” For Assault

See the original post:

After having to make a trip to the emergency room because of a beat down, Pilar Sanders is suing Deion Sanders and his female “friend” Laura Jones. According to TMZ , Pilar claims Deion “orchestrated” the violent attack which was designed to physically force her out of his Texas mansion. According to the documents, Deion summoned Laura — his “fake aunt” — to help him physically remove Pilar from the home on Feb. 6 so Deion could change the locks and bar her from returning. Pilar claims Jones is legally banned from entering the home … but she entered the place anyway … so Pilar says she demanded that the woman leave immediately. Instead, Pilar claims, the woman “squared off and took a swing at [Pilar] hitting her in the eye.” Pilar says Laura “continued to hit, slap, punch, choke, push and kick” her … causing various injuries. Pilar says she was so scared, she grabbed a KITCHEN KNIFE and prepared to defend herself until cops arrived. Now, Pilar wants a judge to issue a restraining order against the woman … and she wants Deion to fork over a check for the mental and physical pain. After the incident, Deion claimed Laura was only at the home to fix his phone system and said Pilar’s account is completely untrue. Can these two just get divorced already???
