The Little Children Suffer

$3 Million Awarded In Suit Against Tony Alamo's Enforcer

Little Rock, AR -- Evangelist Tony Alamo's alleged enforcer has been ordered to pay $3 million in restitution to two boys he's believed to have beaten bloody on the preacher's behalf.

Federal Judge Harry Barnes' order comes as alleged enforcer John Kolbek remains a fugitive. But lawyer W. David Carter said his clients can collect on church properties listed in Kolbek's name.

Carter represents two men who grew up in the church. Each described a twisted world where trivial infractions caused beatings, punitive fasts and threats of damnation from Alamo.

Alamo remains in jail pending a Nov. 13 sentencing hearing over his federal conviction on a 10-count indictment accusing him of taking young girls across state lines for sex.
