Bling Bishop Lamor Miller Whitehead cheered on the arrest of a businessman he had accused of slander after the entrepreneur was hit with fraud charges.
claiming Belmonte lied when he spoke to the New Yorker in January and accused the flashy bishop of shaking him down in relation to a property under development in the Bronx.“This shows that Brandon Belmonte, who prosecutors have referred to as a ‘businessman,’ is actually a con man. He has defrauded numerous people, taken money from them, allegedly millions of dollars, and he has set me up.”
In the wake of Belmonte’s arrest, Whitehead pleaded for US Attorney Damian Williams to review his case and dismiss the pending fraud charges against the holy man. Belmonte, of Montclair, NJ, was busted for allegedly using two straw buyers to finance a luxury car fleet — all while obscuring his intent to use the vehicles as rentals for his company, VIP Cars NYC, according to the federal indictment.
Whitehead, who was hit with federal fraud and extortion charges in December, sued Belmonte for $200 million in March. stemmed from Belmonte’s remarks, and that Belmonte created a “false narrative to implicate me in a bribery scheme…to get himself out of trouble for all the crimes he has committed.”Belmonte, whose mother backed his $100,000 bond, pleaded not guilty.
