Minister's Wife On Trial For Alleged Theft by Deceit
In St Louis a minister's wife, Lola Perkins, 56, is on trial charged with theft by deceit tied to a charity swindle involving Amacker of Lake Providence. Prosecutors say she defrauded millions from a Louisiana landowner through a phony will and bogus charity will beneficiaries. The case centers on The Holybrook Land Corp. and The United Rock of Charity Inc. loaned funds. Perkins is accused of using $79,000 and more to satisfy terms of a bogus will. State witnesses describe the will as creating ill defined estates while defense claims a straight business loan. Perkins faces retrial after related proceedings and the court schedule remains unsettled.
