Dallas pastor accused of breaking into church member's home proclaims innocence
A Dallas pastor who admitted that she entered a parishioner's home and removed belongings without permission is now saying that she was only trying to help.
The Dallas Morning News reported:
Sandy McGriff, 52, said she was trying to protect valuables at the home of her longtime friend Serita Agnew and made a horrible mistake.
Police accuse McGriff of stealing more than $10,000 worth of fur coats, designer purses and electronics from a home in the 2200 block of Village Way near Kiest Boulevard and Lancaster Road. She was also charged with resisting arrest.
McGriff spent most of Christmas Day in jail and was released on $26,000 bail in time for Sunday morning services at The Church of the Living God. The sanctuary is in the back of her husband's furniture store on Lancaster Road in east Oak Cliff.
McGriff invited reporters to her Grand Prairie home Monday to tell her side of the story.
She said she had been in Agnew's east Oak Cliff neighborhood on Friday evening to pick up a peach cobbler from a friend. "Something just told me to go past her house," McGriff said.
McGriff said that when she did, she saw two men coming out from the side of Agnew's house. She said she pulled her black Jaguar into the driveway and walked around the home. That's when she saw the broken kitchen window.
"My mistake was I did not call 911," McGriff said. "I just used poor judgment."
She said she cleared away shards of glass, stood on a barrel and climbed in through the window. She said she was trying to protect Agnew's valuables in case the men came back.
"I thought I was helping," McGriff said.
Beware of any Minister who...
A. Drives a Jaguar.
B. Keeps a mountain of fur coats on their couch (especially while they are telling you that they DIDN'T steal a mountain of fur coats).
What's with the mountain of fur coats? Doesn't help her case if you ask me, unless the message she's trying to send is "I've already stolen enough fur coats, I didn't need any more".
Isn't it a sin to tell a lie?
"In theory theory and practice are alike. In practice they are very different."
the best way to tell a lie is to tell the truth unconvincingly.
"I used poor judgment"
Every fucking criminal who ever got caught says that!
"They didn't allow me to walk in with dignity" BECAUSE YOU'RE A CRIMINAL BURGLAR, YOU DUMB BITCH!
"She said she pulled her black Jaguar into the driveway and walked around the home."????
WTF, Jaguar? Millions in this country and others suffering, hungry, sick and homeless and this "person of god" is getting donations and using it to by a Jaguar? You 'll have to excuse me, I only read as far as that sentence and it was enough for me. I got into the wrong profession if I didn't have a conscience.
A mountain of furs.
me-oww!
any other members of her flock recognize any of their missing property?
Never attribute to malice...
For all those fur coats. Cause they'll be wantin to see them.
I'm sure her flock will feel fleeced. As well they should.
Amazing. What a shyster.
What is your, conceptual, continuity?
everyone boosts furs "by mistake". Did you donate any to folks who could actually use them to stay warm? Didn't think so...

even stupider are those who attend this woman's 'church'.
She's a pastor in texas...by DEFINITION for that position is that 1) You're a F***ING lunatic, 2) YOU ARE ALWAYS better than everybody else either in your congregation or any other circle of acquaintances you may have, and 3) The local Klan ALWAYS gets a cut plus the VIG....
Don't have the money... too bad, get it and pay me... OR, we will drop you off a bridge...
Oh, did I say that you also have to be TOTALLY stupid....
Holy Jesus son of god this is as funny as it gets. Who gives this rip off fraud money?
quite the "wide stance"on this one.
Never attribute to malice...
Helping yourself, more like.
This, is why I drink.
I have a feeling Surita doesn't need any more help, Pastor. BTW if those cuffs were too tight, how did you slip them off? So basically those two guys were just going around breaking windows for no reason at all. OK this all adds up.
1) Fur coats and laptops in the house - alleged key under the mat.
2) Two mysterious men - no call to the cops OR Serita (whom she had JUST spoken to)
3) Climbing in through a kitchen window the two men allegedly broke and then just left.
4) Where is the cousin and that alleged peach cobbler???
5) All that is missing is her carrying a gun - that would have rounded out this tale nicely.
What the hell is in that Texas water? Sorry... It was a crime of convenience!
A case study in pathological lying. And that story was so ridiculous, she complained the handcuffs were too tight and then..........slipped out of them. And then she was mistreated. Wow, that was embarrassing to listen to. A woman who clearly has no shame.
More proof many alleged "Christians" are a threat to the entire planet with their wars and denial of science to go with their pathological behavior. Seems too many people who combine authority with religion end up like this woman, pathetic creatures who lie brazenly. Throw the book at her, and make her sell all those fur coats
"I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians."
I've seen some stuff, man. And some thangs...
So they're good at it.
That's why she seems like she isn't lying, she's a pro. Hopefully soon she can lead a new flockof suckers in the women's prison.
What amazes me is she really thinks someone is going to buy her bullshit.
Her brain dead followers will most likely completely support her and believe her bullshit story.
And really, is her story anymore unbelievable than the dribble she spews forth every Sunday?
Well, I guess it was lucky for her that the good lord, Jeebus threw her bail in time for her to make Sunday services. "Today's sermon brought to you by the letters B & E". After watching the video, all I can say is "Wow!". That has to be the most incredible bullshit story ever told. Hey pastor Sweetcheeks! I might help your case if you didn't shoot a video protesting your innocence while sitting on a mountain of expensive looking fur coats.

She is obviously suffering and needs compassion.
Haters gonna hate...

This whack job reminds me of this interview with Antoine after somebody in the projects attempted to rape his sister:

D' Oh!
It's only a matter of time before some rap artists get ahold of this dingbat's interview and do a spoof of it (just like they did with Antoine's interview):

...who help themselves.

I guess I can't be a Christians, I'm not greedy enough.
assume her guilt, rather than wonder who goes to rob a house in a Jaguar?
It beats taking the bus...
Somehow, listening to this woman's story reminds me of a famous quote.
"America's leading industry, America's most profitable business is still the manufacture, packaging, distribution and marketing of BULLSHIT!" - George Carlin
is a lying piece of shit!
The earth is 6,000 years old Noah built a boat large enough to hold two of every species of living thing on the earth. Getting 1 out of 12 to believe this story? Piece of cake.
Jaguar XE - $80,000.00
Mink coat - $2,400.00
Peach Cobbler - $3.95
Running a church out of your husband's furniture store - Priceless.
I've seen some stuff, man. And some thangs...
like she's a regular "McGriff" the Crime Dog... at least her story really bites.

And now for some feedback: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I guess the two losers she hired to rob this woman's house couldn't get the job done.
Her thought was, "If you want something done, do it yourself."
