Pat Robertson Fires Attorney Over Alleged Affairs With Young Men
Pat Robertson's American Center for Law & Justice yesterday confirmed that it has dismissed one of their top attorneys one day after anonymous blogs claimed that he had had sexual affairs with two young gay men. Via MetroWeekly:
ACLJ's confirmation comes after two blogs — Exposed Politics and The Patriot-Ombudsman — published troves of information about Henderson and his relationship with two younger men. Henderson is married and has eight children. Although there has been speculation as to the age of the two men, it is unclear if they were under the age of consent in the state of Virginia where Henderson lives. According to the two bloggers, Henderson used a Facebook account to communicate with the two men. Conversations obtained and published by the two websites indicate that Henderson may have provided the younger men, who appear to be possibly younger than 21, with alcohol and marijuana. The Facebook account cited by the bloggers has since been deleted. Neither blogger has indicated how they obtained the mountain of information published last week. The editor of Exposed Politics, who asked not to be identified for fear of retribution, told Metro Weekly he received an anonymous tip alerting him to the story.In addition to working for Pat Robertson's anti-gay ACLJ, Henderson taught at his Regent University.
