Il Douche dropped off of the Forbes 400 richest list. Too bad, so sad.

And this woman (Noelle Dunphy) is suing him for sexual harassment, though from this picture, she will have a difficult time in court. Apparently she worked for him as a director of something at an annual salary of $1M.

'Church' leaders who sold bleach as 'miracle' cure get 12-year prison sentence

‘Religious’ con artists are as old as religion itself, but the rubes of Whell’s World still fall for their cons. Sad!

Those rubes are easy. They've been taught to fear God and along come these so-called leaders who say you don't want to go against God do you? That lake of fire has plenty of room left.

Looked up this story since we had lived in Florida and Bradenton sounded familiar. this entire enterprise is a scam.

Quote:
Before marketing MMS as a cure for COVID-19, the Grenons marketed MMS as a miracle cure-all for dozens of other serious diseases and disorders, such as cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, and leukemia, even though the FDA had not approved MMS for any use. The Grenons sold tens of thousands of bottles of MMS nationwide, including to consumers throughout South Florida. They sold this dangerous product under the guise of Genesis II Church of Health and Healing (“Genesis”), an entity they created to avoid government regulation of MMS and shield themselves from prosecution. Genesis’ own websites describe Genesis as a “non-religious church,” and defendant Mark Grenon, the co-founder of Genesis, has repeatedly acknowledged that Genesis “has nothing to do with religion,” and that he founded Genesis to “legalize the use of MMS” and avoid “going [ ] to jail.” The Genesis websites further stated that MMS could be acquired only through a “donation” to Genesis, but the donation amounts for MMS orders were set at specific dollar amounts, and were mandatory, such that the donation amounts were effectively just sales prices. The Grenons received more than $1 million from selling MMS.

The federal jury also found defendants Jonathan and Jordan Grenon guilty of criminal contempt of court. The United States previously filed a civil case against the defendants and Genesis II Church of Health and Healing. See United States v. Genesis II Church of Health and Healing, et al., Case No. 20-21601-CV-WILLIAMS. In that civil case, the United States obtained court orders halting the Grenons’ distribution of MMS. The Grenons willfully violated those court orders and continued to distribute MMS. The Grenons also threatened the federal judge presiding over the civil case, and threatened that, should the government attempt to enforce the court orders halting their distribution of MMS, the Grenons would “pick up guns” and instigate “a Waco.”
Sound familiar? Laws do not apply to us because we own guns!
another public service message?

This deadly con had been perpetrated for over a decade. Why did it take so long for government regulators and law enforcement to shut down this operation?
