Charges filed over $330,000 in grants:Longtime pastor, two others indicted
Fundies caught redhanded! This is YOUR TAXDOLLARS AT WORK, people!!!

Three people, including the longtime pastor of Second Baptist Church and his wife, were indicted Tuesday on federal fraud charges after authorities accused them of enriching themselves with about $330,000 from grants they obtained under false pretenses.

Named as defendants are the Rev. Willie Davis, 68; his wife, Emma, 51; and another Las Vegas pastor, the Rev. McTheron Jones, 57.

A message left for Willie and Emma Davis at their home Tuesday was not returned, and Jones could not be reached.

A woman who answered the phone at Second Baptist Church said she spoke with Willie Davis about attempts to contact him, and he told her he did not want to comment.
