I don’t understand the court system, he got more years in jail for stealing, than someone who purposely go out and rob, mutilate, and murder a person. 😮
Right, People that fraudulently took Tens of millions of dollars during the pandemic literally got probation... This guy got 35 years for stealing a building that's in the same place and that's in the same condition.
Because he is a man of God 😂
@@fossofosso3320🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yup, the system is broken.
It’s almost like a building is more impressive than someone’s life. This world is jacked up
35 years but y'all giving these pedophiles and murders 5-15 years the system is f
That’s what I’m saying
That's because the people in charge are involved in pedo rings. Why do you know they won't release Epstein's list?
In the state of Texas pedophiles will receive 20 years. First-degree murder is a first-degree felony that can result in a sentence of 5-99 years in prison depending on the situation.
sounds backwards
Well he's black so the sentence fits the misdemeanor
35 years is insane!! Its murderers serving less time. He did what he did, but that is an excessive sentence.
Because what he did effects more than one life.
It's called justice. You're so used to seeing injustice, with light sentences for murderers, that you think YOU'RE ENTITLED TO AN SLAP ON THE WRIST SENTENCE! Go raise your little criminals, you're the problem here.
@@user-hw5td5xm9b How can someone who murder get less time is insane!
@@kco8725 guess he shouldn't have acted like Satan to steal from God.
People get less time in prison for murder. What the heck?
This is an incredibly heinous crime to steal a church why wouldn’t he be prosecuted harshly
@@Joe-qm4yv are you saying killing a human being is better than stealing from a church? It's ridiculous.
@@bigmatt1987hawaii I don't think that's what he was saying, bigmatt.
Just because some people get away with murder doesn't mean that DEMON should get away with STEALING GODS HOUSE!!!!!
@@bigmatt1987hawaii
You are right murders in Texas don’t stay in jail for 35 years, death sentence appeals don’t take that long. 😊
so he is just a liar and a thief, he should have gone into politics.
Religious leaders are the OGs, politics didn't come until much later.
🧙 ~ Is this a witch hunt against? He should probably claim it’s a witchhunt, then he’ll get millions of people to back him and give him their hard earned money. Unfortunately people seem to be perfectly happy being brainwashed. It’s not only on one side, but there’s definitely a hell of a lot on the more right leaning side.c
Or became a judge lol
no he in the right profession...lol
trump
"That's no Pastor" demon in disguise...
I believe Mr. Foster shows himself to be devoted to serving the Lord. He's prevented real estate agents & investors from taking control of the churches. There may have well been talk by crooked "good ol' boy" White Supremacist leaders, about tearing the churches down. He clearly assumed responsibility for the churches in order to keep them safe.
He's most likely a Pentecostal Charismatic Christian that proslytises the Antichrist teachings called the prosperity Gospel.
The sentence is out of line.
The root of all evil is the love of money
You already know property is just as good as money 💰
There is some evil that exists without money involved, lust being one. I'm pretty sure that Bible verse says it's the root to many types of evil
I thought it was the love of money
I believe Mr. Foster clearly assumed responsibility for the churches in order to keep them safe from White Supremacist real estate speculators.
That’s exactly what the Bible says. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
🙏🙏🙏
And the creeps that burned a church down in Washington DC didn't even get a slap on the wrist.
Dam that’s right
But God seen it. They will not go unpunished. I've seen it many times people thought they got away with something and later they are punished.
@@JohnSmith-cf4gn Thats why people get away with things. God aint real. Any punishment is done by man.
@@curtis-dj5bp Don't be a fool. Wake up before it's too late.
Welcome to America.
Stealing churches? Now that's got to be a first.................
lol
How do u steal a church
😂🤜🏾

@@TheHoodVoice2024very skillfully...not😂😂
Wait so he got 35 years for felony theft but a lady who literally ran over and killed 2 children only got 15 years. Our court and justice system is a joke. He definitely deserves jail time but he got more than someone that killed children.
It's only a joke when it comes to blacks in this country.
Derek Chauvin got 21 years for murder and will probably get out at 14 years smh
Vageen privilege > black privilege.
how is this different from people just moving into a home and stealing it? sentence them all to 35 years.
Difference - fraudulent paperwork filed with county clerks - forgery, fraud, misrepresentation- squatters are just over officious con men/women practicing bold jackassery.
Ummm... squatters aren't transferring ownership where this guy is.
@@joevarga5982 you really dont think squatters are stealing?
@@scottmcshannon6821 Usually, they aren't claiming ownership.
I agree
I don't usually take up for criminals but don't you think that the punishment does not fit the crime? Whose lives did that man ruin for 35 years by doing what he did? Just tell me how that adds up. He should have to file for Bankruptcy, get sued, get the worst credit and maybe 12 years in jail not prison. And I'm sure that qualifies as a felony to lose your gun rights over. What else?
Yep, this is cruel and unusual punishment
stealing church buildings wow. this guy is sick

Don't worry they'll let you be a pastor at the Texas Department of Criminal Justice but you won't be taking in any donations😂😂

Underrated comment lol 😆
These "pastors" need to stop the nonsense.
They can't They don't respect the almighty god
He's not a nonsense he's a nonce 😅
Greed, greed!
This is insane. To tell me he get 35 years is sickening. Lol.
He is black!! That's why he doing more time than people who murder. SMH
He is not a pastor. He is a counterfeit
Anyone can give themselves a title, based on a piece of paper. And they do. But, a title, based on paper, means nothing. I Always give people a "title" based on what they do and how they act. I have found it to be quite accurate.
well, i believe this case reeks of White Supremacists being pissed off because of some humble black pastor who was trying to keep them from selling God's Church.
All pastors are counterfeit
They're all counterfeit.
Counterfeit crimes should not be 35 years in prison.
Wtf?
I thought that was perfectly legal for preachers to steal.
😂😂
🤣🤣 you're right, he's just the unlucky one to have some enemy who tried to expose him. Most people don't bother to expose the rest of these "pastas" 🤣🤣
Lol ikr
😂 Pastors just like Politicians love Money. Anyhow, remember too folks, Christ turned over tables in the temple due to member chicanery. The Bible says God "does not" dwell in handmade temples...
Verse>> Acts 7:48 KJV 😮
so correct, but also to abuse : ))
He gets 35 years and a 🤍 man that unalived his wife put her in a freezer just reached a plea deal he's only serving 10 years in prison, a two tier justice system for sure.
Defending your color for the usual crimes while expressing racism. Typical
Your racism is showing.
@@CColeman-lq9kwwell do you think 35 years is a fair sentence? No one died, he didn't physically harm anyone. Should the guy be punished? Of course, but 35 years .. a third of one's lifespan for theft? I think that is a bit harsh.
@@errolneal9789robbing someone of a place to worship deserves harsh sentences
You mean the man who was harassed, abused and taken advantage of for decades who finally snapped and killed his abuser? Thats the case youre comparing this too?
What he did was wrong but 35 years is excessive.
Disgusting
"He was once a smooth criminal." but not any more... 😅
He should of became a politician
He get's 35 yrs and a woman who stole $50 million from the American tax payer gets 7 yrs. WHAT'S GOING ON?
You know are are you pretending.
.... it's called institutional racism.
Pure criminal
Tho shalt not steal, maybe the,pastor should of read the book he professes to preach.
So grateful to the all of the people involved in bringing this criminal to justice!
Same people that stole this very land😂😂 jail time… yes.. 35 years insanity!
35 years for stealing property but when i was 12 years old here in Philly I was jumped by five men with baseball. i was left in a coma, had a shattered skull and half of my skull is now titanium. only the ringleader was caught and he pled guilty and served a measly 1½ years of his 3 year sentence
35yrs its Amazing..smh all the while Child Molesters and killers get 7yrs and probation...smh
Mean while you commit fraud stealing millions in ppe loans and get 12 months sitting in your home and still working from the place you stole from.
35 years is too much for someone stealing church properties. That's more than what murderers and robbers receive smh!
It's not too much. There are more than 3 church properties anyway.
Are you a Democrat?
His black, I can bet the jury was all white
What could he even do w 3 churches!?
Having a form of godly devotion but proving false to it's power.
Most of these ministers
Study hermeneutics…
There god is Zeus..yes
If they attend classes an
Get ordained although
I don’t believe they actually
Know this Satan always
Wraps evil in pretty packages..😂
And squatters gets a slap on the wrist, for using false leases to invade people’s homes. Why can’t squatters get 35 years too?
More common than you think 🤔🧐🤨
For some reason the blind followers disagree
lol....No surprise here...
35 years is crazy ... I don't think anyone in history got that as a sentence for stealing property. Wow.
Lets power check all this called pastors. They be on some BS.
Always leaving the laundry detergent on the playground.
If you are a minister found guilty of robbing, and scamming your congregation, life in prison should be mandatory.
Man it's been a tough month for DFW pastors
The 10 commandments do not apply to him, especially "Thou Shall Not Steal".
So our criminal justice system gives this guy 35 years but constantly lets out violent offenders committing rape, murder and all sorts of crimes in months or just a couple of years?? What a joke.
You gotta love Picasso's hair🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️
This is why I don't go to church. I build my relationship with the Most High at my own home
God told you to ''NOT forsake THE ASSEMBLY'' HE NEVER TOLD YOU TO JUDGE SOME CHURCHES ACCORDING TO SOME. you are lazy, and told God ''this is good enough''.
@@marilynwillett804 actually that's not what God told me but if that's the path God put you in then make sure you are at church where the blind follow the blind because you truly don't know what these pastors are doing behind closed doors I guarantee you think you do lol
Go to church in your own home if you want. It's all about you and the Lord.
Funeral still at church
@@cowboydelnorte3078 You can have a funeral in a barn if that's what you want.
35 years? That's crazy.
35 years is way too long
No, that’ll give him plenty of time to read that book he obviously never read.
And how many years did it take to put this man behind bars because it was a white collar crime ? This is insane that he wasn't prosecuted and walking free all this time. This isn't justice or right in any sense of the word.
There is people doing identity theft and only get 5 years, if that. This sentencing is crazy.
That assistant DA needs a haircut, a new suit, and a new tie.
Just Unbelievable 😮 !
This guys a pastor. No, he is a thief. He deserves to go to prison for 35 years.
Seems pretty standard for most preachers I know
No...he's a pastor alright all boxes checked.
People are so gullible. No one should give themselves a title of Apostle, Prophet or even Pastor...
Verse >> Ephesians 4:11 KJV 🙄
@@RalphSmith-cj5he blind follow the blind 💯
He's both. Religos a NO BETTER than anybody else.
Really, does that sentence fit the crime?!
Imagine that Pastor praying over you and laying hands on you
🥴😱 Then suddenly you have an urge to steal!!🤑😈👿👿😔🤣
35 years for stealing property. No one was hurt. They will give murderers 15 yrs......................WTF?
Church's are tax free and anything with religion, disability, is a protected class. Also damn, justifying theft from a religious leader and surprised? Dudes an embarrassment, lock all these MFS up including Osteen and others
What? Murderers, pedophiles, rapists, and dangerous criminals spend less than 10-15 years, but someone gets 35 years, yet he didn't harm no one. Besides, the church can re-claim the property and ex-communicate the pastor. He should just be given probation
What???? 35 years??? That's excessive!
He wrong but his family need to protest that sentence, to long murderers get out faster
Dude, murderers get less time. I'm not saying to let him go without jail, but 35 years seems excessive.
He should not deserve that much time because it is ridiculous.
It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Hebrews 10:31 AMP Read Hebrews 12:28-29 Too.
35 years is crazy
So he got more time than people who kills another person after multiple DUI::.
good...and people wonder why --we don't go to church
A jury CANNOT sentence anyone to anything! Only a JUDGE can pass a sentence!
Omg🤦🏽♀️
I bet he's no stranger to P Diddy LOL 😂
Better not sneeze 🤧. You might get 1 year in prison in that county
The january sixth rioters who tried to overthrow the government got shorter sentences.
Yet these wacky parishioners will continue donating and getting ripped off.
Wow… this is a new one.
The judge know good darn well he/she aint right
A lawyer in Atlanta stole 15mil from the government covid funds and only got 7 yrs!!! Let that sink in.
How does he get 35 years and Rebecca Grossman ends the lives of two children and only gets 15? She should have gotten 50+.
SMH.. thats a shame 35 years thats too much time for a blue colar crime..
How do u hide a big property. Thats not stealing
We got Squatting preachers now....
Don’t mess with Texas 👀
Pastor got more years than a murderer
OMG!!! There is nothing, and no one sacred these days. Pastor is a thief. WTH!!!
90% are. Always been that way.
Shocking.. lol
Tax all churches. The non profit tax status has been severely abused.
Sad that it took 5 YEARS TO GO TO COURT!
He hast done anything the United States government hasn’t done to the Indians and black peoples in America and continue to do it to this day.
35years, he his wrong, but 35.
Worst part is his congregation will still defend him.
When do they ever give others prison time real estate theft? It's bad but 35 years is excessive.
He only did what
he saw heard and explained to him by the people who groomed him!
35 years is excessive. Just proves my point of not going into white courthouse as a black defendant! Duck because the book is COMING!!
It's all about the money.
Hey gets more time, than a child predator,and rapist. Money means more, then children and women. Sickening
He gone be preachin in prison for Summer Sausages and Chips.
Isn't this written in the 10 Commandments; "Thou Shalt not Steal?" I know a pastor who stole thousands from my partners mother. Fortunately, a bank manager alerted us when her 90 year old mothers rent check bounced. We confronted her but never recouped the money. The thief became ill and died a year or two later. I believe it was her guilty conscious.
He stole 3 churches? Unbelievable!
The sentence seems extreme. The sentence should be reduced. what he did was definitely wrong, no doubt. It just seems the sentence does not fit the crime.
HOW DID HE FIT THEM CHURCHES IN HIS POCKET LOL I HEARD OF STEALING OUT THE COLLECTION PLATE MY MAN SAID I'M GOING TO STEAL THE WHOLE CHURCH 😂😂
SAD 😔
His name let alone he should be in Jail, why do American men always have female names??? Just weird.
Good reporting Peyton..
A crooked pastor? Noooooo
