BISHOP EDDIE tricky-dicky LONG FINALLY HAS A MOVIE IN THE MAKING!!! In the short film, produced by Sharon Tomlinson of Studio 11 Films and Lyft Off Productions, Tommie Ingram directs a story about several unsuspecting young boys being abused by an untrustworthy pastor who gains their confidence... However, instead of being sent to prison for his crimes, the unscrupulous pastor is freed of all charges and let right back into the pulpit to preach to other unsuspecting youths, said Ingram... Ingram went on to tell Rolling Out that idea for the story came from the out of court settlement by Bishop Eddie Long, leader of the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, who was accused of s*xually assaulting five Georgia men in 2010. She adds that Long continues to preach to this day, is in the media again, accused of doing things he has no right to be doing, but denies all allegations concerning the previous cases and any wrongdoing today. Why people still believe ministers who have obviously led them astray and let them right back into the pulpit to lie to them again, is anybody’s guess, according to Ingram. She adds that they still do it and it will probably continue, as long as there are predatory preachers out there.
