Decatur, GAA Decatur Pentecostal mega-church leader, Earl Paulk turned himself in to police Tuesday evening after an arrest warrant was issued for him concerning false testimony he gave during a deposition related to a civil lawsuit filed by a former church employee.
Paulk, 80, is the Archbishop of the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit at Chapel Hill Harvester Church in Decatur and is accused of numerous counts of sexual misconduct with women and children within the church and his immediate family.
The perjury charge stemmed from testimony given by Paulk which indicated that he had only had sex with one woman outside his marriage, a church member, Mrs.Mona Brewer. Paulk's testimony was later proven false when up to eight other women came forward with accounts of sexual abuse at the hands of the Archbishop.
Among the women speaking out are Paulk's daughter and granddaughter who claim that for years Paulk had abused the granddaughter and other children connected to the church. Last year DNA tests confirmed that Paulk is also the actual father of his brother's adult son, D.E. Paulk who is an official within the church.
After pleading guilty to the felony charge in a Cobb County Magistrate Court, Paulk was sentenced to 10 years probation and a $1,000.00 fine.
