For most pastors Christmas Eve is a busy evening of preparation and services. This
pastor had a slightly different kind of busy evening:
The Dallas pastor facing felony charges of burglarizing a church member's home on Christmas Eve said Monday she had no criminal intent.
Sandy McGriff, 52, said she was trying to protect valuables at the home of her longtime friend Serita Agnew and made a horrible mistake.
Police accuse McGriff of stealing more than $10,000 worth of fur coats, designer purses and electronics from a home in the 2200 block of Village Way near Kiest Boulevard and Lancaster Road. She was also charged with resisting arrest.
She claims she was in the neighborhood driving by the house when saw two men entering and leaving the victim's house and decided to take the valuables to protect them. She also claims that she had no need to steal valuables. This additional piece of information would seem to buttress her second claim:
She said she pulled her black Jaguar into the driveway and walked around the home. That's when she saw the broken kitchen window.
I can't say I have ever known a pastor who drives a Jaguar. In any case you can watch a
video of the pastor in front of the fur coats telling her side of the story.
