Miami Gardens pastor facing new charge of writing fraudulent checks

Eric Readon, 46, was already behind bars after failing to appear for his arraignment in an arrest last week on fraud charges. Local 10 News has been investigating the pastor since 2017.

@@user-vi2dk1qz5f Well in this lawyers defense? As to his suit n looks only.Yes to many outside looks matter. Im not defending the Pastor or this lawyer though. But Im a retired county sheriff. I can tell you from 3 decades in law enforcement Male smart skilled lawyers rarely were "Handsome" or wore custom suits,etc. Plus vile criminals rarely "Look" a certain way. I arrested many Attractive folks for rape,child sex abuse or murder.

[@dianarendon5845]

Lock him up away for a long time, it should help serve as a deterrent for other “pastors” or other service people to think twice before going ahead and disgustingly take advantage of innocent vulnerable or guillable people that put all their faith and trust on them. A person like this seriously disgusts me more than a bank robber or a drug dealer, someone who takes advantage of the elderly or otherwise guillable people who trusted then to then rob them are truly the lowest of the low in soceity.

If he failed to appear arrest him and hold him so he can't do more harm. People fall for pastors promises and believe they would never do such acts. They remain gullible and lose a lot of money when the pastor's and personnel use the funds for their own benefits.
