Eddie Long could take witness stand in burglary case

From ChristianPost

Bishop Eddie Long, who recently avoided trial in a sexual misconduct case against him, could be called to testify about a break into his office at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church if a burglary case goes to trial.

Anthony Boyd, who formerly worked at the Atlanta megachurch as a security guard, is accused of breaking into Long’s office on June 12, 2010 and stealing $100,000 worth of jewelry and electronics, including an iPad and iPhone. On Tuesday, he appeared with his lawyer David Fife in court to enter a not guilty plea to the burglary charges.

Fife said that if the case goes to trial, which he expects it to, Long will likely be called to the stand. “He’s certainly a witness that would have to be called by somebody. The state or the defense,” Fife told WSB Atlanta.
