That’ll give him a lot of time to ponder the error of his ways... and then some. What an incredible story and tragedy for all those that fell victim to this lump of .. crap.

So he’s going to be like 250 years old when they release him back into society? I’d a gave him life without parole.

*Reading Headline only* His testicles should be removed immediately if not sooner. However, a true evangelist would have not committed this atrocity. But, I'm wondering if this is just spin which is using the word 'evangelist'.

This cult leader should have been imprisoned decades ago. If they would only lock up Osteen and the other television “evangelists” cult leaders with him, Christianity would be far better off.

It’s just a matter of time until behavior like his becomes a human right protected by law.

Just give the Democrats enough time.

This man was a thorn in Nashville’s side for many years. He had a house where all his “people” lived and worked. They made gaudy jackets for many country stars, and when they weren’t gluing glitter they would paper your windshield with their idiotic beliefs. I can’t tell you how many times I pulled off one of their “tracts” and threw it straight in the trash.

If I am not mistaken, I believe he had his wife’s coffin in his house for many years.... but I wouldn’t swear to the accuracy of that in court.
