William Dexter Lucas, aka Bill Lucas, 60, and Deborah Jean Lucas, 64, both of Bryan, pleaded guilty, while Brian Corpian, 45, of Houston, entered his plea on Dec. 2.
For almost the last decade, prosecutors said there were no church services or pastoral services through Jesus Survives Ministries. Since 2014, the three men made false statements regarding their payroll at the church in submitting car loan applications for purchases of cars on which they had no intention of making payments. Both Bill and Deborah Lucas were able to obtain cars through these false applications.
When Bill Lucas became frustrated with bank employees’ failure to review and fund the loans quickly, prosecutors said he would send accusatory and intimidating text messages and emails; including, “This is war!!!!!” “I curse you, your bank and you[r] whole family,” and “You extremists think I am playing with you. You started a war and I guarantee you that you[’re] not walking away unscathed.”
