‘Entire family fed on the cash cow’: Jerry Falwell, Jr. ‘intertwined his personal finances’ with Liberty’s

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/09/entire-family-fed-on-the-cash-cow-jerry-falwell-jr-intertwined-his-personal-finances-with-libertys/


Now that top Trump supporter Jerry Falwell, Jr. is gone from the school his father founded, reports about his management – or mismanagement – of the top Christian evangelical college reveal how his “entire family made millions off Liberty University,” as the NY Post reports.

“Falwell, who took over as president of Liberty in 2007 after years as a lawyer handling its real estate interests, intertwined his personal finances with those of the evangelical Christian university founded by his father,” the Post’s Paula Froelich reveals.

“During his time at Liberty, Falwell made sure his entire family fed on the cash cow by putting his two sons and their wives on the payroll. He also transferred a large Liberty facility to his personal trainer and had a friend’s construction company manage a university expansion project that cost hundreds of millions, according to Reuters.”

The sex scandal that derailed Falwell, Jr. was centered on a pool boy who says he had an “intimate relationship” with Falwell’s wife and that “Jerry enjoyed watching.” Falwell says he was not involved, but characterized his wife’s affair as a “fatal attraction.”

"A former Liberty University student says Becki Falwell, the wife of the university’s then-President Jerry  Falwell Jr., jumped into bed with him and performed oral sex on him while he stayed over at the Falwell home after a band practice with her eldest son in 2008.

The student was 22 at the time of the encounter, near the start of Liberty’s fall semester. He said she initiated the act, and he went along with it. But despite his rejection of further advances, he said, Falwell continued pursuing him, offering him gifts and engaging in banter through Facebook messages.

“She was the aggressor,” he said.

The messages, screenshots of which were provided by the former student to POLITICO, suggest a flirtatious relationship that went beyond what might be expected of a mother communicating with her son’s bandmate."...(more)

are just in it to make the money. Always. The Swaggart's, Jim Baker and his wife Tammy are all in this scam for sex and money. Typical of the American Christian scammers, like trump, Jarad, Ivanka and all their scamming and grifting. American religion and Republican politics, led by vicious evil men and women.
