Jerry Falwell Jr. alleges his family was blackmailed by a man his wife had an 'inappropriate personal relationship' with.
“While we tried to distance ourselves from him over time,” Falwell Jr. writes, “he unfortunately became increasingly angry and aggressive. Eventually, he began threatening to publicly reveal this secret relationship with Becki and to deliberately embarrass my wife, family, and Liberty University unless we agreed to pay him substantial monies.” He added “we were doing our best to respectfully unravel this ‘fatal attraction’ type situation,” but “It was like living on a roller coaster.
In response to the Falwells’ statement, however, Granda told the paper, “Any allegation of extortion is falsely, defamatory and belied by clear documentary evidence. The Falwells’ attempt to sandbag me, and theclear evidence that this was not simply an ‘affair’ with concocted allegations of extortion reeks desperation. The WHOLE truth will come out.”
