Thomason said In that recently taped conversation obtained by the Clarion Ledger that he served in the Marine Force Reconnaissance in Colombia in the 1980s.<\/p>\n
When the operation ended, \u201cOliver North pulled me out of formation and shook my hand,\u201d he said. \u201cHe pulled me out of formation because I had lost six of my squad. We were one of the eight-man Lotus squads in Colombia. Me and my sergeant, Terry Brown, he shook both of our hands. He pulled us out of formation because we were the only two to survive that day.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a June 14 letter, the National Personnel Records Center said it conducted an “extensive search of every records source and alternate records” and found no military records on Thomason.<\/p>\n
His first wife, Vicki, said he never served in the military.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Thomason also pretends to be a pastor who ministers to veterans suffering from PTSD. He bilked Bryan Todd Sympson out of $336,590 in donations, plus an RV park;<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like a fool, but I\u2019m an honest guy,\u201d Sympson said. \u201cI always try to find the good in people.\u201d<\/p>\n
After his accountant informed him that he couldn\u2019t deduct his contributions because the charity wasn\u2019t registered, he said he confronted Thomason, who has since registered the charity with the secretary of state\u2019s office.<\/p>\n
Sympson\u2019s lawsuit alleges \u201cThomason does not run, nor has he run, a genuine Christian ministry. Thomason and (his wife) Sheila Thomason used the funds provided by Sympson for personal gain and personal expenses.\u201d<\/p>\n
After Sympson stopped donating, Thomason put a notice on Sympson\u2019s door: \u201cHello, Brother in Christ, Brother in blood and a true brother as a friend. I am respectly (sic) asked (sic) that we sit down and break bread together and cast the Demon out that has fiercly (sic) tried to devide (sic) us.\u201d<\/p>\n
When Sympson wouldn\u2019t meet with him, Thomason put up another notice: \u201cYou have 72 hours to vacate this property.\u201d A follow-up notice claimed Sympson, who gave Thomason the RV Park, owed him $15,600.<\/p>\n
When the Clarion Ledger called trying to contact Thomason for comment, his wife hung up the phone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Thomason is also connected to a convicted serial killer, Felix Vail, who is serving a life sentence in Louisiana for killing three women. One of Thomason’s ex-wives is believed by the Clarion-Ledger to be a victim because she drowned under suspicious conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
