New footage shows the trio who cops believe accosted a flashy Brooklyn bishop and snatched up more than $1 million in jewelry during a live-streamed church service.
The footage, released late Thursday and marked with a timestamp of Sunday around 11:05 a.m. – minutes before the heist at the Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries – shows the three suspects walking on the sidewalk with their hoods pulled up and their faces covered.
Bishop Lamor Whitehead, 44, was in the middle of his sermon at the Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries in Canarsie around 11:14 a.m. when the trio burst in, police said.
“How many of you have lost your faith because you saw somebody else die?” Whitehead asked his congregation — right before spotting the armed intruders. *** The thieves made off with a treasure trove of items totaling $1,060,000: a $75,000 Rolex watch, a $75,000 Cavalier watch, a $25,000 Episcopal ruby and diamond ring, a $25,000 Episcopal diamond ring, a $25,000 pair of earrings, a $20,000 diamond and emerald cross, a $20,000 Episcopal ring, a $20,000 Episcopal cross and a $10,000 Episcopal gold cross.**

Insurance.
Odds on this being an insurance scam?
I bet the Bishop was in on it so he could make a million dollar insurance claim over 10k worth of property.
LOL!!!! That “Fendi” jacket. The EPITOME of good taste.
Flashy Bishop?
I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
It did look staged. No screaming.
Oh hell no! That “bishop” is NOT following Christs teachings. Son should give all that bling up to help the poor in his community. I find people like that really disturbing.
Lol. None of those jewelry items are worth a fraction of the claims. What is this guy a Bishop of anyhow? The Bishop of Bling?
Let's see. How many watches did they steal from him? Yep, evidently he wears two watches. LOL Two watches, not one. And who wears 3 crosses? LOL
From the article: "The thieves made off with a treasure trove of items totaling $1,060,000: a $75,000 Rolex watch, a $75,000 Cavalier watch, a $25,000 Episcopal ruby and diamond ring, a $25,000 Episcopal diamond ring, a $25,000 pair of earrings, a $20,000 diamond and emerald cross, a $20,000 Episcopal ring, a $20,000 Episcopal cross and a $10,000 Episcopal gold cross."
Maybe my favorite part is what the poor thieves drove off in: a Mercedes. LOL
How much of the ‘preachers’ jewelry was even his?
I don’t know where these people get their titles, but a black guy doing this is not only common, but expected.
It’s grifting. It’s what they do.
Who says religion doesn’t pay?
To be fair, they did rob two people.
Thanks for the correction. Evidently there are limits to their privilege. LOL
Well, it was the same MAGA hats that attacked Jussie Smollett.
But of course America’s real problem is white supremacists, right liberals?
Two people explains two watches and three crosses. Sorta.
