A Charlotte, N.C. pastor is charged with not giving sufficiently unto Caesar:
The senior pastor of Macedonia Baptist Church in Charlotte has been indicted by a federal grand jury in connection with bank loans, tax evasion and false statements made to federal agents, the U.S. Attorney's office announced Friday.
According to the indictment, John Henry Walker earned nearly $600,000 from the church between 1999 and 2003 but reported an income of less than $55,000 to the government. He is charged with nine crimes and could face up to 120 years in prison and millions of dollars in fines.
Rev. Walker is charged with helping himself to the church building fund and youth fund and not sharing with the IRS.
