They won’t just sit and watch.
They won’t just sit and watch. Liberty University sued its former president Jerry Falwell Jr. on Thursday, claiming he tanked the school’s reputation with a devilish sex scandal and hid that information while negotiating a fat new contract in 2019. Falwell was president and chancellor of Liberty from 2007 until August 2020, when he resigned in disgrace. Earlier that month, Falwell’s pool cleaner-turned-business partner Giancarlo Granda said beginning in 2012 he had sex several times with Falwell’s wife, Becki, while the evangelical university president watched. The Falwells have admitted the affair but denied the kinkier aspects. In the suit, Liberty said the scandal tarnished its reputation as an institution of higher learning, claiming Falwell threw numerous parties and was spotted at several clubs in Miami.
