Last week Grammy Award-winning gospel singer and pastor Donnie McClurkin was sued by his former personal assistant, Giuseppe Corletto. He accused McClurkin of grooming and unwanted sexual advances.
Over the weekend McClurkin took to social media to say that the claims were a baseless money grab. He went live on Facebook to share his side of the story.
He said that the claims were false and “motivated by money.” McClurkin also said that he had not seen or spoken to his accuser since 2015.
“I transparently tell you that this is all fabricated and untrue,” McClurkin said “I am praying for the gentleman, that he regains some kind of lucid thought and gives his life to the Lord.”
