Joel Osteen – Money & checks found in his church wall years after burglary

Joel Osteen is causing a stir again but this time because of a burglary that took place years ago at his supermarket.

Back in 2014 news broke about Lakewood Church for an alleged burglary in which someone allegedly stole $600,000.

The case was never solved but the police may have discovered a major situation that could take them a step further.

Morning presenter “Morning Bullpen” George Lindsey Listen to callers talk about everyday topics. However, one caller took things to the next level. A plumber called to talk about how he found some money in the church after doing some work there. “There was a loose toilet on the wall, and we removed the tile” said the caller. “We went to remove the toilet, and I moved some of the insulation away and about 500 envelopes fell off the wall, and I was like ‘Oh wow!'”

The plumber said the envelopes contained cash and checks.

“I went ahead and contacted the maintenance supervisor there, and I’m done.”

A representative from Lakewood Church acknowledged cash and checks were found at the facility during repairs. In 2014, Crime Stoppers in Houston offered a reward of $25,000 for information leading to the arrest of the suspect.

While it’s not clear if this helped, one thing they did let us know is that at the time of the crime, Houston’s Crime Stoppers said the statute of limitations had expired and the plumber issued a statement. appear will not receive any rewards. money.

Joel Osteen is still dealing with a number of legal issues stemming from his receipt of a $4 million PPP loan from the Federal Government last year during the pandemic. The megachurch pastor initially denied that he took out a loan, however, the church decided to voluntarily return the money received amid widespread criticism.
