Tony Alamo Verdict

Two former members of cult leader Tony Alamo's ministry have been awarded $33 million each by a Texarkana, Arkansas jury. They claim Alamo ordered them beaten. The jury found Alamo liable for battery, outrage and conspiracy. Alamo plans an appeal and his lawyers say the men will never see the money - because there isn't any. Last year, a federal judge awarded 5 young women whom Alamo sexually assaulted and took as "wives" $500,000 each.
