Tony Alamo is posing as a Spiritual Leader, but he is an abuser of the innocent, a sexual predator preying on children and young women.

Many men, women (including Alamo Foundation school teachers) and children have been beaten by the minions (blind followers) of the Alamo Ministries, as well as by Pastor Alamo himself.
