| Momma seen this program on TV yesterday called The Turpin 13 It was about a feller from Princeton, WV, what growed up in the COG there. He married a gal in the church, they moved to Texas, then to CA. The daddy was a engineer an made a 6-figure income. They had 13 young'uns, all biological children, an it was found recently they had been keepin em in chains, not feedin em, etc. The oldest was 29. Well, the authorities removed the young'uns from the home and the parents are in jail awaitin trial.Anybody familiar with the COG Turpin family in WV? Hey, I know it aint no reflection on the rest a the family, but when the program showed the church they growed up in it had our COG emblem on the sign.Just plain sad!en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turpin case |

| I read about that about a year ago. It is sad that some journalist must make a point by ensuring the name/denomination of any action or scandal will be known. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| And if a journalist doesn't make the denomination known, OTCP sure will!This is OLD NEWS, so is the Soddy Daisy Prophet, but if it stings Pentecostals and the Church of God, OTCP will be sure to remind, remind, and remind everyone. |

| Aaron,In fairness to Oldtimer - they were only caught in 2018...so it ain't that old.If it showed a COG sign and he was really watching it - he could have at least taken a screenshot of it.SO - perhaps we should just label it fake news regarding the COG - and move on |

| The program me an momma seen, The Turpin 13, was a 2-hour documentary hosted by Soledad O'Brien. Momma had seen it advertised cause the ole timer don't spend much time watchin Oxygen. Momma thought it was some kinda horror story an ast if I'd watch it with her.www.oxygen.com/the-turpin-13-family-secrets-exposed/crime-time/the-turpin-13-family-secrets-exposed-hosted-byIn referencing the Princeton COG, O'Brien said It was a Pentecostal church that believed in speaking in tongues and where people attended church 2-3 times a week. It was said in such a way as to be less than complementary. No, the program didn't blame the COG, I don't remember any further reference bein made to the COG after that. This aired on Sat, April 28, an was the very first time the ole timer had heard of it. So if you boys heard it long ago you must be prophets, cause the news didn't break till Jan 2018.I made no reference of wrongdoing on the part of the COG or the Turpin family. I don't know any of em. I posted the story cause as I sat there an watched the story it was unbelievable. |

| What is the Princeton COGs response to being on a national news program?Should they say nothing - or point out that they kicked their sorry behinds outta the church? (if that is what happened) Who knows? But if that is the only church referenced - then I would say it was cast in a very negative light |
