JACOBS NAMED WESTCOAST BLACK THEATRE AFTER A CONVICTED PREDATOR AND SEXUAL MOLESTOR OF BLACK CHILDREN  

broken image

On 9/23/2022 the self appointed Bishop Henry Lee Porter was sentenced by Judge Thomas Krug to two consecutive life sentences in prison for sexual molesting children fewer than 12 years of age. For decades. Porter wined and dined with Sarasota's social elite while Porter molesed and raped Black children locally and world-wide.

Not only was the child sexual predator and phony minister and self-proclaimed Bishop Henry Porter, who groomed Black children for his sexual pleasure convicted and sentenced for molesting Black children for decades -- so were Porter's enablers convicted of turning their heads to this fraud.

Porter is a prime example of how the white social elite, who control Sarasota financially, culturally and politically has used Blacks like Porter to further their agenda.

For 50 years THIS SELF-ORDAINED MINISTER AND BISHOP molested and raped Black children in his Downtown Sarasota church, his Downtown Sarasota school, his resideonce in the Sapphire Shores/Indian Beach neighborhood and throughout the United States, Europe and Africa.

Meanwhile, Westcoast church members, the scial elite, law enforcement, the media and others turned their heads to the cries of those molested by Porter and others.

Porter was a handsome, intelligent manipulative fraud and well groomed in his African attire who went along to get along with the social elite. Those social elitists promoted Porter as an example of racial harmony in Sarasota.

PORTER'S WESTCOAST CHURCH AND SCHOOL FOR HUMAN DEVELOPMENT LITTLE MORE THAN A CULT WHOSE MEMBERS BELIEVED PORTER WAS "THE HAND OF GOD"  

Porter sexuael molested and raped Black children in Sarasota at his Downtown Westcoast Church and School for Human Development and beyond for decades.

Porter created the Westcoast School for Human Development (1981, grades K-12) and served as the principal from 1981 to 2000.

What was going on at that Westcoast Church was nothing more than a cult with Porter being considered by his followers as the "Hand of God." Porter would state to the members of the Church, "if the word did not come from him, it did not come from God."

Krug   

KRUG: "PORTER USED HOLY POSITION TO SEXUALLY BATTER CHILDREN"

Judge Krug in sentencing the phony minister Porter stated, who was NEVER ordained a minister or Bishop: "What I’m convinced of, you used a robe, a position taking the authority of God ... and that you used that holy position to sexually batter children."

KRUG ADMONISHED PORTER'S ENABLERS

Krug addressed those Porter supporters in the packed courtroom and those on zoom who could not fit in the courtroom. They were there to defend Porter despite evidence that Porter was a sexual predator, who molested and raped hundreds of children for over 50 years.

Krug stated, "whatever Porter would say from his Holy Authority you would believe despite the dozens of lives crushed by him." Krug continued, "those that have enabled this sexual predator to destroy the lives of countless victims; you need to take account of your actions as you lay down on your pillow to sleep tonight."

PORTER SHOWED NO REMORSE FOR MOLESTING AND RAPING CHILDREN

Despite all the children Porter had molested and raped there was no remorse. Despite hundreds of pages of documentation and testimony that Porter molested and raped countless children throughout the world, Porter stated: "Though I am in shackles, in chains, I am innocent of the charges."

PORTER WESTCOAST CHURCH AND SCHOOL FOR HUMAN DEVELOPMENT MEMBERS SUPPORT THE CHILD MOLESTER AND RAPIST

Shamefully five individuals witnessed on behalf of Porter with other sending letters to Judge Krug in support of Porter, who molested and raped Black children for decades

A longtime Porter supporter stated, "Porter was a heavenly God, a dad to look up to and and Porter made Sarasota a better place." This person presently teaches at the Westcoast School for Human Development. Another member of Porter's Westcoast Church and School for Human Developement stated, "It will be a indictment of all and a travisity if he (Porter) stays another day in jail."

AS PORTER MOLESTD AND RAPED BLACK CHILDREN PORTER MADE A MOCKERY OF LOCAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM

Porter's conviction cannot hide the Sarasota Police Department and FBI botched investigations in 1990 and 2001-2002, which allowed Porter to continue to molest and rape Black children for 20 to 30 years afterwards. Porter had made a mockery of an inept local criminal justice system, as he molested a countless number of Black children.

Iorio

WHY NOT IORIO INSTEAD OF INEPT SPD AND FBI INEPT INVESTAGATORS?

The question remains today is why was Chris Iorio, who is the MOST respected, experienced and highly capable investigator in sexual abuses cases in the area and beyond not asked to be involved in pursuing Porter? Iorio was a winner of numerous awards for the arrest and conviction of sexual predators, while working with the Sarasota County Sheriff's Department.

Thomas

Iorio was intially approached by local FBI agent Kelly Thomas to look over a FBI file they had on their sexual molestation investagation of Porter in 2002. The local FBI was involved brcause Porter had taken local Black children out of Florida and molested and raped them in other locations outside of Florida. The day after Thomas asked Iorio to look at the files, Thomas rquested them back, which Iorio did. Ioorio was never asked to be involved with the Porter investigations.

Billings

Instead of Iorio, a inept Sarasota Police Departmet (SPD) investagator Lynn Thomson and equally inept FBI invstagator Lynn Billings along with other less competent investigators were the ones investigating Porter.  

Billings is now an Investigator with Morgan and Morgan’s Litigation Unit. In her resume for Morgan and Morgan, Billings states while she was assigned to the FBI Tampa Division’s Sarasota Resident Agency she conducted investigations concerning crimes against children.

WESTCOAST CHURCH MEMBERS KNEW PORTER GROOMED BLACK CHILDREN FOR SEXUAL MOLESTATION

It is documented that members of the Westcoast Church knew Porter was using the school to groom children for his sexual molestation. Some went to law enforcement but received no assistance in taking Porter off the streets. Others left, while others stayed and enabled Porter to continue his evilness..

INFORMATION ON PORTER ABUSES PASSED TO LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT

One of the individuals who can forth on information that Porter was molested Black children for years was a former member of Porter's church. She was Michele Jacobs, who left the church after divorcing Nate Jacobs, who was a member of Porter's church. Nate Jacobs was a teacher at the Westcoast School for Human Development for 12 years.

Michele Jacobs stated for over a year and a half she met with various City of Sarasota Police Department law enforcement officers. She met most exclusively with SPD detective Lynn
Thomson, who led the 2000-2001 criminal investigation of Porter. She was among
others who came forward from the Westcoast Church for Human Development with
information Porter was sexually abusing Black children. 

An arrest report says in the 2001-2002 investigation there was a letter from an anonymous person that listed 40 people accusing Porter of sexual abuse. The report states "all of these incidents of sexual abuse were outside the statute of limitations when the victims provided statements to law enforcement which prevented criminal charges."

Porter went on to abuse Black children for 20 more years

Smith

Information also came forth that two Assistant Pastors at the Porter's church, Vincent Smith, and Wallace Murray. Both had confronted Porter after a young man whom Porter had molested as a child moved to Connecticut and threatened to sue the church and Porter unless they negotiated a cash settlement.

Smith and Murray demanded Porter seek treatment for sexual abusing children, which Porter refused. A cash settlement was then forthcoming to Porter's victim to cover up Porter's crime, which reportedly were one of many numerous other cover ups of Porter's sexual molestation crimes.

Instead of reporting Porter to the law enforcement or demandig Porter's resignation, Smith and Murray did neither. Smith left Porter and started his own church in Sarasota and Murray moved to Nort Carolina, (Calls to Smith have not been returned. Murray has moved to North Carolina and has made himself unavailable for comment).

TESTIMONY OF WHO PORTER SEXUALLY MOLESTED IMPRISONED HIM FOR LIFE

The sentencing putting Porter away for the rest of his life was based on testimony given by Porter's victims how Porter groomed children to sexual molest them.

“He (Porter) cloaked himself as a father figure, but under the veil was a predator, and we were the prey," one of Portr's victims stated.

One young man under the age of 12 at was molested at Porter's residence in the Sapphire Shore/Indian Beach neighborhood. One under the age of 12 was molested at Porter's Westcoast Church and School for Human Redevelopment. Another Black child was raped in a Las Vages hotel room

One young man, who produced the video called The Art of Manipulation -- My Survival of Molestation that led to Porter's arrest testified he was molested at the age of 15 in a hotel room in Daytona Beach. That sexual molestation began six years of Porter having anal and oral sex with Porter.

Another young man testified how Porter drove to his rural home in Lake County to bring him back to Sarasota at the age of 14 to live in Porter's Church and School of Human Development. Shortly after taking up residence, Porter began orally and anally molesting the young boy.

This young man also testified Porter had him give him oral sex on a trip to Tallahassee. The child eventually was successful running away from from the Westcoast Church and School after three failed attempts and being brought back to church/school by Porter's aides.

One Porter victim recalled one incident in which he fell asleep on a mattress in Porter’s office, then awakened with Porter on top of him and trying to run, the arrest report said, only to be pulled back by the pastor. Porter warned the child to never tell anyone what happened, saying no one would believe him over the "pastor."

Other than those testifying at Porter's trial, after Porter was arrested in 2021 following Watkins' video, police interviewed more than 20 similar “fact victims.” All were boy's ages 14 to young adults of various ages who provided statements outlining the abuse by Porter.

Investigators spoke to another who told police that the Porter repeatedly sexually assaulted him, both in Porter’s bedroom and at the church, according to an arrest report, during school hours and before and after church services. 

"WHAT DIVINITY SCHOOL DID PORTER ATTEND?"

SLIME BALLS THAT HIDE BEHIND A FACADE OF HONONOR/GOONESS/ DIGNITY LIKE PORTER AND OTHERS

In an article written in the Sarasota Herald Tribune concerning Porter's sentencing were the below questions and comments asked by a SHT subscriber;

"What Divinity School did Porter attend? Is Porter an ordained minister? What church? Is he Catholic? Baptist? Non-Denominational? What difference it would make, you ask. Only if you believe ANY training could prepare an animal like him for service to humanity. If he, in fact, has real religious training, add him to the long list of other slime balls that hide behind a facade of honor, goodness, and dignity."

PORTER WENT TO NO DIVINITY SCHOOL OR COLLEGE - PORTER IS NO ORDAINED MINISTER OR BISHOP

This self-ordained minister and self-proclaimed Bishop Porter for 50 years perpetuated the biggest fraud on the Sarasota community that any community has ever witnessed.

Porter has NO religious training. Porter graduated from Florida A & M with a degree in mathematics. Porter enrolled in Yale to get a doctor's degree in mathematics, but dropped out before getting a degree.

Porter returned to Sarasota where he was born and raised and became a SELF-ORDAINED MINISTER. Porter proceeded to become a SELF-ORDAINED BISHOP.

Porter has fraudulently trained and ordained many ministers since 1971. He has fraudulently consecrated graduates of Bible colleges since 1985. As a phony self ordained Prelate, Porter has served on boards to fraudulently consecrate bishops since 1995.

The list includes Bishop Kenneth Moales in 1995, Bishop James Howell in 1997, Bishop Dwight D. Parrett in 2003 and Bishop Thomas E. McDonald in 2006.

PORTER'S RESUME IS JUST ONE HUGE FRAUD

JACOBS NAMES WESTCOAST BLACK THEATRE AFTER HIS MENTOR-PORTER

The white social elite along with a local media and law enforcement now see Porter's conviction as the end of their Porter problem. They now believe once Porter is sent off to prison everyone will forget that Porter molested Black children for over 50 years.

But that 50-year-old disgraceful problem and cover-up is staring his enablers directly in their face. Because a few blocks from Porter's Westcoast Church and School for Human Development is the Westcoast Black Theatre. The founder and Artistic Director of the Theatre's Nate Jacobs named the Theatre after the 50-year-old molester of countless Black children.

PORTER AND JACOBS CONNECTION IS TROUBLESSOME/PORTER HELPED DEDICATE JACOBS'S WESTCOAST ADDITION

In 2018 Porter helped his protégé Jacobs dedicate an addition to Westcoast Black Theater as Jacobs's patrons look on at the dedication of a $8 million-dollar addition to the Westcoast Black Theatre.

No one is closer to Porter than Jacobs and no one is more than an enabler to Porter than Jacobs. That is more than obvious in an interview that took place less than 2 years before Porter was arrested for sexual molesting Black children.

The interview is disgusting as the child molester Porter and Jacobs laugh, sing and reminisce over the years they spent together. The room where the interview took place is the same room where the convicted child predator Porter molested an 11 year old boy. The incident was part of the evidence in the recent trial to convict Porter of molesting a child under 12.

JACOBS SPEAKS AT PORTER'S WESCOAST CHURCH/SCHOOL THE NIGHT AFTER PORTER IS DEMOINIZED IN A SARASOTA COURT ROOM

On 6/23/22 which was the day that testimony was heard at Porter's trial that he molested Black children, Jacobs spoke that night at the Westcoast Church were Porter molested those young men as children.

Jacobs shamefully and outrageougly metioned not a word of the young men who spoke that day how Porter sexually molesed them. All of these young men Jacobs was personaly closel to and assoccied with these young men as they grew up in the Westcoast Church and School---Jacobs was their teacher.

JACOBS SPEAKING "THE WORD OF GOD" AT WESTCOAST CHURCH OF HUMAN DEVEVELOMENT 8/23/22

It was shameful as Jacobs sang and pranced around on this night like a stuff peacock singing and preaching that "Westcoast was God's idea and it was a good idea." Porter preached, "God created and establised Westcoast. God sent the man of God (Porter) and he (Porter) spoke to us." Jacobs asks God "to pour You out and pour me in and I will obey Your will and I will speak Your word."

Jacobs sang and preached at the West Coast Church and School of Human Development for an hour to Porter enablers who still believe Porter is "the hand of God." The same folks who attended the trial in support of Porter and as Judge Krug stated, "Whatever Porter would say from his Holy Authority you would believe despite the dozens of lives crushed by him."

JACOBS CALLS PORTER "A MAN OF GOD" AND "HIS RABBI"

JACOBS SAYS WESTCOAST THEATRE OFFICIALS KNOW BETTER THAN QUESTIONED HIM ABOUT PORTER'S WESTCOAST CHURCH

Jacobs spoke for an hour exalting of all the good Porter achieved while "ministering" at the church and school. Jacobs calls the convicted child molestor of Black chilren "A Man of God" and "His Rabbi."

Jacobs stated, "Every, time Porter would call him that he needed him, he would come." Jacobs told the Westcoast congregation those Board members at the Westcoast Black Threatre he founded, " know better to bother him about times he attends the Westcoast Church."

Jacobs spoke glowingly how for twelve years he taught at Porter's School for Human Development. This is the same school where it was documented and testified that Porter would bring young Black children down from the upstairs school to Porter's inner office to sexualy molest them.

Jacobs also spoke what an honor it was to be asked to travel with Porter with the Westcoast chorus and ensemble, which included young children. It was documented and testified that young children after performing on stage on those trips and retired to their rooms in the evening, Porter would send one of his aides to bring a child to his room where Porter would molest them.

It is stated in over 200 pages of sworn statements that Porter traveled throughout this country, Europe, and Africa molesting African American children. Members of Porter’s West Coast of Human Development enterprise, who traveled with Porter and children rarely reported Porter's sexual abuse. Those they did were ignored.

JACOBS LIKE HIS 30 YEAR MENTOR GOES ALONG NICELY WITH SARASOTA CULTURE ELITE

Jacobs fits very nicely into who goes along to get along with the Sarasota's culture elite just as Porter did. The night Jacobs spoke to Porter's enablers, Jacobs bragged about the $500,000 home in a gated community with expensive marble fixuures the patrons of the Westcoast Black Theatre bougt for him.

These thousands of contributors who contribute $millions to Westcoast Black Theatre to a major Porter enabler are the movers and shakers of the Sarasota community.

Porter performing in front of SHT office in Downtown Sarasota blocks away from Westcoast Church/School for Human Develoment

How does the SHT explain that during McFarlin's leaership, Porter was molesting and raping Black a few blocks away from the SHT offices. Porter would also perform with young children in front of the SHT headquarters in Downtown Sarasota. 

Sarasota Herald Tribune has no intention of reporting that Porter groomed Black children for his sexiual pleasure, while the local white culture elite of Sarasota had Porter as their example of racial compatibility. 

Orsi has no intentions of following up on all the individuals who were Porter enablers. These individual said not a word knowing Porter was molesting and raping Black children for decades. Not a word in the SHT article at Porter sentencing how Judge Krug admonished those individuals.

It is scandelous the lack of covrage the SHT has provided the public Porter molesting Black children. No reporting after Porter was arrested near two year ago and not a word prior to the trial.

The reporter sent to cover the trial missed the first two days of the trial, which was when the major part of testimony by Portr's victims was heard. She had no idea of who Porter was and knew nothing about the trial until SHT investagative Chris Anderson informed her about Porter and his trial.

Having a young reporter, who was recently pracuhuted into Sarasota from Mississippi and knowing little or nothing about what goes on in Sarasota, her covering Porter was inapproiate. Instead of having an investigative reporter like Chris Anderson or columnist Carrie Seidman writing about Porter says how littlte the SHT cared about the 50 years of countless Black children being molested and raped by Porter for decades.

When Seidman inquired about the Porter situation, Seieman was informed by the SHT Opinions Editor Roger Brown that he had someone to write a in-depth article on Porter.
