Jerry Falwell Jr. says he's resigned from Liberty University amid sex scandal

Falwell's exit marks a precipitous fall from power for one of the country's most visible evangelical leaders and ardent supporters of U.S. President Donald Trump. The Lynchburg, Virginia, university was founded by Falwell's late father, the Rev. Jerry Falwell Sr.

Becki Falwell also spoke with the AP on Tuesday, saying she and her husband are "more in love than ever." The latest controversy began to unfold late Sunday, when The Washington Examiner published a lengthy statement from Falwell disclosing that his wife had an extramarital affair. The statement, later shared with the AP, said the man involved had been threatening to reveal the relationship "to deliberately embarrass my wife, family, and Liberty University unless we agreed to pay him substantial monies.

The tale of Granda's ties to the family, previously reported in part by other news outlets, has become known as the "pool boy" story. Granda and the Falwells met while he worked as a pool attendant in Miami. Liberty alumni and Virginia pastor Colby Garman tweeted on Monday night that the events which brought Falwell down "are not the public fall of a Christian leader into sin."

Liberty University is a joke, another scam like Trump University. Places like that help parasitic televangelists claim to hold doctorates.

I wonder how he feels about finally paying taxes now?

Don't see why this is anyone's business but the people that were involved...the individuals were all adults & apparently, it was all consensual.

Another faux Christian bites the reality pod!
