VIDEO: REV CREFLO DOLLAR WANTS YOU TO KNOW "I SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ARRESTED"



Last week the internet went crazy once word got out that mega church leader Rev. Dollar was arrested for punching, and choking his 15 year old daughter.  After the details came out most people supported Rev Dollar discipline actions.  
So Rev Dollar wants you to know...Creflo Dollar Jr. took to the pulpit of his south Fulton County megachurch Sunday to proclaim his innocence of charges that he choked and beat his 15-year-old daughter.

"I want you to hear it personally from me: All is well in the Dollar household," he said. "A family conversation with our youngest daughter got emotional. Things escalated from there."
But he said: "She was not choked. She was not punched." What a police report described as scratches on her neck were remnants of a long-ago case of eczema, he said.
"Anything else is exaggeration and sensationalism."

“Like all of us who are parents, there are times when discipline and training our children can become very intense,” Dollar said. “I would never approach one of my children to intentionally inflict bodily harm. I love her with all my heart.”
Saying he "respects the law," Dollar nonetheless described himself as "angry" over how police handled the case.

"I want to say this very emphatically: I should have never been arrested," Dollar said. When details of the episode come to light, he added, "you will be appalled."



“The devil knows that in order to discredit the message, you have to first of all discredit the messenger,” Dollar told his congregation.








"I was compelled to come today just to see exactly what happened and why it happened," she said. Dollar closed by quoting a passage Psalms 35th Chapter:




Fayette County Sheriff’s deputies arrested the 50-year-old minister on simple battery charges after initial reports from the teen, his youngest child, and from his 19-year-old, Alexandria Dollar.


According to an incident report, Alexandria Dollar told deputies the pastor choked her little sister for about five seconds with both his hands before grabbing the younger teen by the shoulders, slapping her, then throwing her to the ground.


Alexandria subsequently reversed her statement to sheriff’s deputies later Friday, authorities said. The father of five said that parenting can become heated at times.
