Love Don't Live Here Anymore: Bynum Update Part 3; Newnan Man Kills Live In Girlfriend

Today is a bit of a depressing day in the 'Love Don't Live Here Anymore' Arena.

• Juanita Bynum spoke out for the first time publically since the alleged attack by her husband Bishop Weeks. She said she forgives Weeks and plans to become an advocate in the crusade against domestic violence. Interestingly, Bynum said she held no hard feelings towards her husband. She would not say anything negative about him. "Nobody could give me enough money," she said. "As long as he's my husband I won't break that covenant."
  
  Hmmm..maybe after the divorce we'll get a tell all book.

• A Newnan man was arrested Sunday morning and charged with the beating death of his live in girlfriend.

Moral of the story is that domestic violence is a problem in our very own community. It's not something to take lightly, because it, takes lives. If you or someone you know is a victim please contact Georgia's Domestic Violence Resource Center at http://www.womenslaw.org/GA/GA_links.htm. Seek help now...before it's too late.

So, the alleged wife beater, Bishop Thomas Weeks is now out on bond after attacking his estranged wife, Juanita Bynum in a hotel parking lot on Wednesday. He surrendered to authorities and spent about 6 hours in jail. He was ordered to have no contact with Bynum or her sister. AJC is reporting that Weeks released the following statements through his lawyers:

"He is extremely sad over the events that have taken place," said Edward Garland, one of the two attorneys representing Weeks. "I think there is hope on his part that the relationship can get past these difficult moments.
"He has never had any accusation of any sort like this from her or anyone esle," said Garland. "There are a lot of circumstances surrounding these events that will be explained at a later time. He is turning it over to the court system at this point.''
Weeks, Garland said, will meet with "a variety of pastors over which he presides, and with his father, who is a minister, and he's going to make a prayerful decision as to how he proceeds. He's dedicated his whole life to the ministry, and we're very hopeful that he will be able to continue to lead the ministry."

Bynum is attempting to make clear through her publicist that the two were not fighting, she was assaulted.
