David Sills, an ex-Southern Baptist Convention seminary professor accused of sexual abuse by his former student filed a defamation suit in Alabama against her and several SBC entities.
The ex-Southern Baptist Convention seminary professor accused of sexual abuse by his former student filed a defamation suit in Alabama against her and several SBC entities, claiming the allegations were part of an SBC attempt to improve its image in the wake of the sexual abuse coverup scandal.
Although the Sillses live in Mississippi and Lyell lives in Tennessee, the lawsuit was filed in Mobile County Circuit Court because former SBC President Ed Litton, who is among the defendants in the suit, lives in Mobile County and the SBC, the convention’s executive committee and other SBC entities “own and maintain property, employees and/or agents in Alabama, including Mobile County Alabama,” the suit stated.
While the SBC’s reports on Lyell’s allegations claimed Sills was fired, the former professor claims he voluntarily resigned after admitting to a “morally inappropriate relationship” with Lyell.
