A Lexington pastor under scrutiny since last fall is now accused of
embezzling $100,000 of a church contribution, according to a civil
lawsuit filed by two church members.
The new lawsuit from James Keogh
and Chad Martin filed Friday in Fayette County Circuit Court provides
more specific details about the source of the heated dispute at Southern
Acres Christian Church than did an earlier lawsuit that was dismissed
while the church members tried to work with pastor Cameron McDonald.
Keogh and Martin accuse McDonald
of embezzlement, unlawful conversion of funds and unjust enrichment in
the civil complaint. An attorney representing McDonald earlier said no
money had been misused and denied all allegations. Attempts to reach
attorney Austin Wilkerson Tuesday were not immediately successful.
