Falwell Jr. says FBI to investigate 'criminal conspiracy' at Liberty University
The Hill ^ | 09/10/2019 | Staff

Posted on 09/11/2019 4:10:26 AM PDT by DFG

Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. told Hill.TV on Tuesday that he has begun sharing information with the FBI in what he alleged was a criminal conspiracy against him by former board members at the school.

Falwell said in an exclusive interview that in the coming days the FBI will review university documents at the Lynchburg, Va., campus. He accused former colleagues of stealing school property in the form of emails and then sharing them with reporters in an effort to damage his reputation.

The FBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

“Our attorneys have determined that this small group of former board members and employees, they’re involved in a criminal conspiracy, are working together to steal Liberty property in the form of emails and provided them to reporters," Falwell Jr. said.

Isn’t Falwell on our side?

Snitching to libshit reporters does not strike me as something we should favor.

“Isn’t Falwell on our side?”

Of course. He has been, at least from 2016.

Ultimately a weak hit piece on Trump, Christianity, and conservatives.

Your support for such garbage is duly noted.

Please, just no more chasing other men around the office in your underwear.

We don’t need that one again.

Sorry, but having worked in a university, this is a crime, especially for board members. The whole idea is to be open and transparent.

So a board member has an obligation to cover up crimes committed by executives in leadership.

INTERESTING POV.

Did your university also encourage systematic financial self-dealing by the University President? What University was it?

“encourage?”

No. But they all do. It’s part of the president’s “perks.”

If you sign a non-disclosure, you are not allowed to release certain information. You are to take it to the appropriate University channels. I think those who crossed Trump are finding that out.
