(Alleged Bishop Long victim Jamal Parris)
In his first interview since accusing Bishop Eddie Long, Jamal Parris spoke to Fox 5 Atlanta about what he claims was a calculated seduction by the religious leader that began when he was a child.
Mr. Parris said:
[W]hile the media and the rest of the people around the city, around the country look at us like how could grown men let another man touch him, what you have to understand is this man has manipulated us since childhood," Parris explained. "This was our father and we loved him.
We would have to be the craziest kids in the world to want to come out and admit to another man touching on us publicly. To really believe this is about money would be absolutely ludicrous.
But that man can not look me in my eye and tell me we did not live this pain. While you can sit in front of the church and tell them that you categorically deny it. You can't say that to our face. And you know this. You are not a man, you are a monster
