The prostitute who brought down Jimmy Swaggert interviewed.

Debra Murphree claims that Swaggert paid her $20 on many occasions for various sexual encounters. Swaggert's infamous "I have sinned" speech was the result of getting caught with Murphree.
On October 11, 1991, Swaggart was found in the company of a prostitute for a second time. He was pulled over by a police officer in Indio, California, for driving on the wrong side of the road. With him in the vehicle was a woman named Rosemary Garcia. According to Garcia, Swaggart had stopped to proposition her on the side of the road. She later told reporters, "He asked me for sex. I mean, that's why he stopped me. That's what I do. I'm a prostitute." This time, rather than confessing to his congregation, Swaggart told those at Family Worship Center that "The Lord told me it's flat none of your business." Swaggart's son Donnie then announced to the stunned audience that his father would be temporarily stepping down as head of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries for "a time of healing and counseling."

He got caught that's why he apologized and there's no telling what he has done that he hasn't apologized for.this woman isn't guilty of anything but trying to make a living today prostitution is damn near a tax write-off and Democrats are anti-religion so it seemed she was more in tuned with the way the world was going to be than he was. So who was God really working through. It seems he's still lying to congregations. There's no excuse for wanting to see a 9 year old pose nude.

@@bashasuleman3477 then you study the Bible, sir, and you come up with a gentler more humanistic conclusion. People say Christians say this and Christians say that. Truth is, Christians have no authority to say any such weighty spiritual things without Scripture saying it first. Sometimes Christians can be wrong. The problem is getting all choked up over a nine-yr old but a lost continent of adult savages doesn't get people that upset. It's tragic any are lost. The problem on this admittedly difficult subject is man sees things his way and asks essentially why all can't be saved when, if people knew and bowed to Scripture, we'd ask (knowing unholy, fallen man cannot occupy heaven with Holy God without redemption and blood of Christ) why does He save ANY? Remember Romans: "There is none that is righteous; no, not one." Romans is speaking of humanity, generally and that includes children. Tough subject and God is sovereign. If there's some carve-out under "age of accountability" idea, fine with me. I just don't see it in Scripture. There are verses pointed to in support of such a teaching but I've never found it to persuasive. But maybe myself and others have missed a hidden truth in Holy Writ that ultimately supports just such a doctrine. I'm limited by my humanity, too, and I'd like to believe it. But espousing it without Biblical support (to best of my understanding, hopefully with help of Holy Spirit)...a Christian of conscience can't do it.

@@PRock369 most organized religions are run by fre emasons who pretend to be temple , church , or mosque leaders in their own communities.

There are other reasons but these are the top 3 . So what you see above is a perfect example have jimmy televised all over the world, then have him involved in all sorts of scandals for years .

You are exactly right. We are warned for good reason, we will know them by their fruit. Not every tv preacher is like that, but America has made an industry of mega churches and very rich celebrity preachers. I admire certain preachers who kept it humble. David Maines, 100 Huntley Street (Canada), kept a carpenters wage for himself, based on what he figured Jesus and several apostles made. Which Maines said was comfortable to raise a family. he had no scandals that I know of. He was more the era of Swaggart, so many might not know of him, though I'm pretty sure 100 Huntley Street is still running w/ other ministers. Francis Chan is a a modern day preacher, and when his church was going mega, and things were getting too comfortable, he completely walked away from the church he built up. he never saw it as his anyway. Chan started from scratch, where ever the Lord wanted to lead him. So many thought he was crazy for giving up what had become such a cushy gig. Chan apparently felt like it had all become chains, and that he wasn't being used by God in a dramatic enough way.

Very sad. No one can fathom the depth of the effect of sin with all human beings. I think as I have watched Jimmy Swaggert back than and now as he has a church on TV that it is easy to be filled with religious pride, but that is complicated in how it takes root in ministers especially. He was brazen in his remarks against Jim Bakker and others, how he could do the things he did shocks many. I feel very concerned for the many people who left their faith in God because of his actions. It shook my box quite a bit when it all happened. But I know the power of God to save and to FORGIVE, so it does not surprise me NOW he has a thriving ministry. His son Donnie is a great preacher, also his grandson Gabriel. It is always going to be a sad commentary of his ministry no matter how many years go by. Yet God is able to work through our failures. I would be very surprised if Jimmy himself does not still suffer deeply over his sins at times, he no doubt must think about the many people who were affected by his behavior. Remember however, that God knows his heart, God judges and "Vengeance is Mine says the LORD, I will repay."

Jesus said that when a woman was brought out to be stoned for being caught in adultery. They did not bring the man to be stoned also, as the Bible says. So that is when he said let the one who is without sin cast the first stone. If they had truly obeyed the law and stoned both, he might still have said the same thing. Because the Bible said not to punish a woman for adultery if her husband commits adultery and is not punished Similarly, if a leader of the community commits adultery, why should he be allowed to stone anyone if less rank than him.

According to the Associated Press, Murphree failed a polygraph test administered by a New York City Police Department polygraph expert. The test administrator concluded that Murphree had failed to tell the truth on all key questions concerning her statement. The test was administered after Murphree offered to sell the story to the National Enquirer for $100,000. Murphree failed questions about whether she was paid or promised money to "set up" Swaggart and whether she made up the story to make money from it. In place of Murphree's interview, Enquirer editor Levy published an accounting of Swaggart's family where they allegedly expressed their fears over Swaggart's health. Murphree, who blamed her failed polygraph on "cocaine use" the day before the test was given, went on to have her interview published by Penthouse magazine.

Now....why would Jimmy go along with these horrendous lies including the alleged desiring of a child? Think...what is really being covered up?! Here's what was said/discovered in the other video on Vimeo. The original discovered prostitute was a 38 year old 5'7 blond named Suzi. She was the one who was to come forward and allegedly Swaggart did do something with Debbie but Suzi he actually had a lot of dirt on him.......but Suzi DISAPPEARED ONE WEEK before the scandal broke. A scandal was going to break about Swaggart either way. Gorman had photos with BOTH women coming out of the hotel and after the other women disappeared this Debra woman who was 28 at the time of the events and not a veteran prostitute went along with the plan. In addition to Penthouse and interviews the Swaggart family paid off her family for their silence. Those are the allegations from the video. Suzi has not been seen since one week before the scandal broke back in 1988.
