Praise God! Alamo's attorneys pleaded for mercy for him, my heart broke, NOT. The young women were very brave and did a wonderful job. The wittnesses alamo's attorneys produced were pathetic. Krantz has all his children in state care and he still pleads for his master. The other witness, don't remember his name, Slego or something like that, has a 15 year old daughter living in alamo's house now and his wife and daughter run away and were carried to a safe place by really caring people and they will be blessed for their involvement. She said she was already blessed but I believe she and her husband will continue to be blessed. I'm thankful for them.
The media all interviewed my beautiful daughter. Watch for her. I was a little ittitated when two women, one of whom I knew, were handed a sign by Mary but neither wanted to hold the sign so Kristen took it. She did not know who made the sign and when the other women didn't care to hold it she volunteered, but paca, Mary, come over and snatched the sign from her. The other people standing around said what is up with her. This action was caught on video by the media. So glad true colors were shown today. Very childish behavious but.... They were not impressed with her, needless to say. Good Job Lynn!
Oh praise you Anna. You and your beautiful daughter.....not......

I loved the truck with all their trash plastered all over it. I hope he saw it when they led him out. Poor old thing. I couldn't believe they would bring a doctor from California to testify about his poor health but the doctor had only seen him one time and that was in November of 2005. The doctor said he still calls in refills for him. WOW, when I worked for doctors they insisted a patient be seen at least once a year or in the case of someone like alamo with all his medical problems every six months. When the doctor last saw him the pervert weighted in at 233 pounds. The doctor didn't know how tall alamo was. That is over twice the weight of an 8 year old weighting in at 90 pounds. Even back that long ago alamo was full of. The doctor said he had problems with constipation then. They tried to make it look like a bad thing that he had lost 70 pounds while in jail. If he is a diabetic then getting 70 pounds off should be good for him. Of course they are going to appeal.
The three Jane Does were so pretty and they were confident and it just shows that the pervert didn't ruin their lives.
To the exmember that was so kind and said she loved me I am grateful.

PRINT|E-MAILMOREText SizeAAATEXARKANA, Ark.(Nov. 13)— Evangelist Tony Alamo was sentenced Friday to 175 years in prison for taking underage girls across state lines for sex, effectively punishing him for the rest of his life for molesting children he took as "brides" in his ministry.
During Friday's hearing, some of Alamo's victims testified about how their families were destroyed while the evangelist took over their lives.

Alamo, 75, had been convicted in July on a 10-count federal indictment. U.S. District Judge Harry F. Barnes said Alamo used his status as father figure and pastor and threatened the girls with "the loss of their salvation."
"Mr. Alamo, one day you will face a higher, a greater judge than me, may he have mercy on your soul," Barnes said.
Just before Barnes sentenced Alamo, the evangelist offered a brief statement to the court praising God, then later adding:
"I'm glad I'm me and not the deceived people in the world."
Alamo's lawyers said they planned to appeal Barnes' ruling. His defense offered a doctor who said Alamo suffered from hardening arteries, diabetes, glaucoma and other health problems. However, on cross-examination, the doctor acknowledged he saw Alamo only once in 2004 and that the purpose of Alamo's visit was to get an eye lift to make him appear younger.

The evangelist will stay in Texarkana pending a Jan. 13 hearing in which Barnes will decide whether Alamo's victims will get restitution from him. After that hearing, Barnes said Alamo would go to a federal prison that has hospital facilities.
A woman Alamo took as a child "bride" at age 8 challenged the evangelist from the witness stand Friday to submit himself to God's judgment. Reading from lined notebook paper, she said Alamo tore her family apart by taking her as a child bride and described how she shook uncontrollably when he first molested her.
"You preyed on innocent children," she said staring down Alamo, who wore yellow prison scrubs and a windbreaker for the hearing.
"You have the audacity to ask for mercy. What mercy did you show us?" she said.
A moment later she asked, "What kind of man of God does what you have done?"
The woman told Barnes that she planned to become an FBI agent in order to help other child sex abuse victims.
Two other child brides testified. One, who said she is now employed full-time and has a life of her own outside of the ministry, said she hoped Alamo would spend the rest of his life in jail.
"Maybe the real God, not the God you made up, will have mercy on your soul," the woman said.
Barnes said there was ample evidence that Alamo engaged in a pattern of molesting younger and younger girls in his ministry.
Alamo accused his victims of lying, as he has done throughout his prosecution.

the pervert stood and said "I'M glad I'm me and not the deceived people in this world". Please note in my post I stated the doctor had seen hiim in 2005 and it was 2004. I wonder why they didn't get a doctor that had treated him more recently. Surely he gets medical treatment especially if he has diabetes. What kind of doctor would treat a diabetic after only one office call.

By the way this is not "Carrie". My battery dies so I am using another computer. Before you blow a gasket just ask your fearless leader paca how this works. I believe she did the same and someone posted on her PACA name as someone else so don't get all constipated.

I still have her post to prove it does happen so just stay cool. The world pervert is going to die in prison and the young women are making a life for themselves and I am so happy for them.

"Mr. Alamo, one day you will face a higher, a greater judge than me, may he have mercy on your soul," Barnes said."

alamo had no mercy on those girls and he received no mercy.

Just watched the KTBS video. You , Anna/Carrie, to NOT be a part of PACA, you and your "beautiful daughter" did not hesitate in posing yourself into the PACA sign holding. Did ya'll never learn not to take what is not yours. I call that stealing. Isn't that in the 10 commandments to NOT do. Maybe your "beautiful daughter" DOES want to be a part of PACA. Did you ever give her the choice?????

I have not watched the news. The sign was handed to Kristen by the women because they didn't want to hold it. Just keep on being yourself. I know what happened. I was there. We didn't steal anything. If you cared you would have been here.
My daughter is 19. She makes her own choices. Kristen loved "Ms Mary" and was surprised at her action as was the other people standing around.
She never did anythng to Mary so there was no reasn for her to act like that but we consider the source and have decided to ignore it. Have a good evening Alan. Stop trying to stir it.

If Melanie hadn't done what she did the raid would never have occured. I will leave it at that for right now. call Mr Harris, the FBI agent for more info if this doesn't satisfy you.

Daily Horoscope for December 11

Libra

If someone owes you money and you're beginning to think that you'll never get it back, this is an excellent day to chase them up. They may not cave in straightaway but at least you'll have had your say and done what you can. Watch out for a tendency to lose your temper, because although this could be quite dramatic if you're usually the soul of equanimity it could work against you if you become aggressive or unpleasant.
