Church Funds Used To Pay For Sex Calls
KENTUCKY...
A central Kentucky man is facing charges after police say he used church funds to pay for sex calls. 23-year-old Michael Graham is charged with theft and misuse of an automated banking device. Mercer County Deputy Sheriff Eric Barkman says Graham used funds from Abundant Life Church in Harrodsburg to pay for $784 worth of calls in January and February. Barkman says Graham got the church's checking account information when leaders offered to pay a water bill for him. Barkman says Graham accepted the offer, but said he would pick up the check and pay the bill himself.
Barkman says Graham used the account and routing number on the check to pay for the calls. Church officials contacted police after noticing the inappropriate drafts.
