Lamor Whitehead, the 'Bling Bishop,' received a nine-year prison sentence for wire fraud, attempted extortion, and more, deceiving parishioners and businessmen with false promises and scams.
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams labeled Whitehead as a 'con man,' highlighting his deceitful acts that included stealing millions and lying to federal agents and the court.
Whitehead convinced a parishioner to invest $90,000, which he misused for personal expenses rather than helping her find a home. He also attempted to extort money from a businessman with false promises, showing a pattern of deceit.
The court revealed Whitehead's manipulation techniques, including false promises of political favors, to extract money from victims, ultimately leading to his conviction for financial fraud.
