MONROE, Ga. — The leaders of a multimillion dollar food charity under FBI investigation for possible financial misdeeds have reached an agreement to keep them from being barred from their Monroe headquarters.

Attorneys in a lawsuit involving Angel Food Ministries reached an agreement Friday after a Walton County court hearing.

The charity is run by the Rev. Joseph Wingo, his wife and two sons.

The Feb. 25 suit filed by Angel Food board members Craig Atnip, of Texas, and David Prather, of Georgia, alleged the Wingos enriched themselves by at least $2.7 million and directed $600,000 from Angel Food to their church as a "housing allowance."

1. SHIT! This was one of the better faith based charities

allowing poor families to buy twice as many groceries as they could afford at a grocery store. The selection wasn't always the best and relied on a lot of donated processed foods, but it was certainly better than hunger.

I hate it when good charities are robbed by people who think they're entitled to heaven on earth for starting them.

2. off topic but

did you realize that if you hadn't written Craig Atnip...but had used his Initial...It would be C.Atnip? Parents do some terrible things.
