What a self-sacrificing man

June 07, 2010

South Carolina pastor and convicted tax evader Anthony Jinwright is willing to accept brutal privation to get out jail. From charlotteobserver.com:

Bishop Anthony Jinwright, locked up since a jury convicted him in May on tax evasion charges, wants to be let out of jail while awaiting sentencing.

Jinwright's lawyers are asking U.S. District Judge Frank Whitney to allow their client to be released from jail on bond so he can work on liquidating his business assets and paying his taxes.

Interesting thought. If he'd have done that in the first place,he wouldn't have this problem. But what is the bitter privation?

Jinwright's lawyers say their client will accept no more than $300,000 in compensation from his church.

What a guy. That will hardly help him make the payments on his Maybach, his Bentley, or his five Lexuses.
