411 for week ending: June 3rd, 2011


    



Bishop Eddie Long has returned to the pulpit after settling with the four young men who accused him of sexual misconduct. Bishop Long faced accusations from the young men who claimed they were given cars, trips, jewelry and cash in exchange for sex. Long denied the allegations, but he settled with the men to the tune of $15 million. Since the allegations, Long’s church, New Birth Missionary Baptist of Atlanta, has lost membership. Bernice King, the youngest daughter of Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King, has announced she is leaving New Birth. Long released a statement that King would be leaving to continue to the work of her parents. Because Bishop Long was considered a spiritual mentor to King, speculation is being fueled that her disappointment in him and this settlement is the real cause of her leaving. It was Bishop Long who officiated over Coretta Scott King’s funeral in 2006.
Shaquille O’Neal is calling it a career. After years of speculation and criticism for staying too long, Shaq took to his twitter to announce his retirement from basketball.

Despite the locker room feuds, the divorce from Shaunie, and his growing injuries, he still leaves as a 15-time All Star, a three-time NBA Finals MVP and the NBA’s fifth overall scorer.
