Nashville lawyer Gary Blackburn told WTVF, who conducted the investigation: “It suggests to me – perhaps I’m cynical – it suggests to me that the accumulation was not for God, it was for Gwen.”
In 1998 Shamblin Lara told CNN host Larry King: “This money, half of it goes to the government, the other half goes to keep it going so that someone else can be helped.”
It was also revealed that Shamblin Lara’s 2018 divorce from her husband, David Shamblin, showed the couple had 18 properties worth more than $20million.
These properties included a Florida beach house valued at more than $4m, another mansion in Brentwood at around $7m, and the jet that crashed.
