Synopsis

The Reverend is a work of fi ction based on the horrifi c misdeeds of a Black minister. He took directorship of a store front church, increased its congregation, he developed a kindergarten and Middle School for Black children and secured local, state and federal funding in support of these facilities. He is a handsome, charismatic, religious leader who changed his house of worship into a house of multiple horrors. However, he also became arrogant and over confident in this thriving church. In his reign of terror he slew the former Bishop, kidnapped, raped and slain more than forty young Black girls brought to him by a cadre of quasi nuns who also panhandled. He has a sense of being God's instrument and doing His will, of being infallible, self righteous. Those he has slain were dismembered and their bodies burned. Over the years he has been arrested a number of times for minor offenses. Th is serial killer was brought to justice through dedicated police work and a number of fortunate events. He has been convicted of four homicides and is, at present serving consecutive life sentences in upstate New York.
