A Virginia pastor and his
wife have been convicted of defrauding members of their congregation and
investors in a Nigerian oil scheme.
Fifty-three-year-old Terry
Wayne Millender and 57-year-old Brenda Millender were convicted by a federal
jury Monday of a $2 million fraud scheme, according to the United States
Attorney’s office for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Terry Millender is the
former senior pastor of Victorious Life Church in Alexandria.
Prosecutors said the couple
recruited investors for companies they said provided small loans to poor people
in developing countries and helped broker Nigerian oil deals. Prosecutors said
the Millenders used investor money to pay for golf trips, a birthday party, and
to help purchase a $1.75 million home.
The Millenders are set to
be sentenced in March.
