Jamal Parris, one of the four accusers in Bishop Eddie Long sex scandal said, “That the Bishop turned his back on them when he had no more need for them.” “This was our father and we loved him.” His presence alone is seduction to a boy without a father.”
When asked why he didn’t say no this is wrong? Parris Says he was “Afraid to loose a father.” “You finally have a father that you’ve always wanted for and always dreamed of,” Parris said. “He would just walk away from you if you don’t give him what he wants. So you end up turning into something you never thought you would be, which is now a slave to a man that you love.”
Recalling the details of nights spent with Bishop Long, Parris said, “I cannot get the sound of his voice out of my head,” “I cannot forget the smell of his cologne. And I cannot forget the way that he made me cry many nights when I drove in his car on the way home, not able to take enough showers to wipe the smell of him off of my body.”
Jamal Parris spoke to Atlanta’s Fox 5 and told the station, “that man can not look me in my eye and tell me we did not live this pain,” Parris said. “Why 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.”
