Lamor Whitehead, a Brooklyn pastor known for his extravagant lifestyle, has been sentenced to nine years in prison for various crimes including fraud and extortion.
Whitehead, who led the Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries, was found guilty in March of using his position to deceive and steal from his followers.
Prosecutors claim he used the stolen money to fund his lavish lifestyle, including purchasing expensive clothes and cars.
Whitehead gained notoriety in 2022 after being robbed during a live-streamed sermon, where thieves stole over $1 million in jewelry.
