A second pastor has been charged with violating public orders against large gatherings

On Tuesday police in suburban Baton Rouge, Louisiana, issued Pastor Tony Spell of Life Tabernacle Church a misdemeanor summons for six counts of violating the governor's executive order barring large gatherings.

"Mr. Spell will have his day in court where he will be held responsible for his reckless and irresponsible decisions that endangered the health of his congregation and our community," Corcoran added. As of Tuesday afternoon Louisiana had recorded more than 5,200 cases of coronavirus and 239 deaths, by CNN's count.

Howard-Browne's attorney says the church abided by social distancing guidelines and accused local lawmakers with infringing upon his religious liberty.

A waste of taxpayers money.

Good.

I can't believe we are still hearing this in the news. These 'pastors' obviously don't have respect for life.

COVID-19: Florida pastor arrested for violating bans on large gatherings, says closures are for ‘pansies’Rev. Rodney Howard-Browne of the River Church in Tampa Bay, Fl. told his congregation he would only close the church if the Rapture happened Like the flower? As someone else has posted: person 1: I believe Donald Trump was sent by God. person 2: Why? Did he run out of locusts?
