Like so many others of their ilk, this is a second-generation scumbag pastor who took over the family business after his scumbag pappy retired from actively bilking fools of their money.

CENTRAL — A Central pastor who has defied government orders to limit crowds to 50 people or fewer, was arrested on six counts of violating the governor's order, after authorities say he's continued to hold large services.
Pastor Tony Spell’s arrest on Tuesday follows weeks of city and state leaders urging that he suspend services at Life Tabernacle Church in Central amid a surge in fatal coronavirus cases in Louisiana and East Baton Rouge Parish.
"He will be held responsible for his reckless and irresponsible decisions that endangered the health of his congregation and our community," said Central Police Chief Roger Corcoran. "We are facing a public health crisis and expect our community's leaders to set a positive example and follow the law."

3. I think they had to weigh the risk of making him a martyr vs. the harm he's causing...

they gave him two chances to do the right thing but not a third.
