In fact, earlier this month, Colin Maloney of the Michigan-based News-Herald published a long piece alleging that Taylor had turned JMMI into a “slave labor cult.” You would think a guy like that would lay low for a while after being exposed for the con artist he is, but he only got worse. One woman gave $1.2 million - which included her cashed-out 401K - and was left practically homeless while Taylor got richer. How did the church get all this money? As you might guess, it involved convincing members to hand it all over to them in the name of God. Then there were the church’s luxury cars, including a BMW and Mercedes, that were reserved for “high profile guests,” and the thousands of dollars of church money Taylor spent on high-end clothing because they “have a better TV appearance.” (Because how could anyone remember the address of a multi-million dollar building you also live in?) There was also a $2.8 million property he had listed as an asset on the church’s tax forms… but he later slipped up and called it his “home.” Then he claimed he didn’t know the place’s address. Like when he claimed not to recognize someone’s name… even though he had listed that name as a dependent on his tax returns. And during the back and forth, there were so many jaw-dropping moments. The deposition was to respond to charges of financial corruption. He was in the news after video of a deposition he gave to a lawyer became public.
