Falwell Accuses Liberty U Officials Of Sexual Misconduct

September 22, 2023 Christianists, Infighting Is Funny

Lynchburg’s ABC affiliate reports:

There is a new development in a lawsuit filed by Jerry Falwell Jr. over allegations that Liberty University exploited Dr. Jerry Falwell Sr.’s trademarked name and image. Now, Falwell Jr. is calling out high-ranking university officials for alleged sexual misconduct, questionable financial decisions, and mistreatment of the Falwell family. The Amended Complaint, filed on September 13, claims the actions of university leadership are damaging to the “Jerry Falwell” trademark.

To force Falwell’s exit, the complaint says certain Executive Committee members exploited Falwell’s health condition and attempted to convince Falwell to take a leave of absence because of “excess drinking.” The complaint makes the case that Falwell was being held to a standard that did not apply to other high-ranking university officials. The complaint alleges that several other incidents were not met with the same punitive action.

Read the full article. Falwell alleges that multiple other Liberty University officials were not disciplined for their own extramarital affairs and for sexual harassment. If you haven’t seen the Hulu documentary on Falwell’s pool boy three-way scandal, I highly recommend it.
