ORU Scandal.

The university's regents are calling for a new audit. They are retaining an additional independent auditing firm.

Richard Roberts, meanwhile, insists he paid for his expenses out of his own pocket and didn't do anything illegal.

Roberts' written statement outlines current accountability measures for ORU
and Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association finances.

The Roberts family's expenses related to ORU or the association are charged to those organizations, and the family's personal expenses are charged to Roberts, the statement says.

"Any expenses, including trips, errands, food, etc., deemed personal are charged back to me and are paid personally by me on a monthly basis," Roberts said in the statement.


The comments below the article are worth a look also.

It WAS 20 years ago, not thirty, when Oral Roberts was concerned he would be "called home" if $8 million wasn't raised for his university. It didn't seem to me to be 30 years ago, as some damned fool wrote someplace else. It was around the time of the PTL scandal when this occurred.

I am going to make corrections to a couple of posts from last night.
