The new complaint says Stovall Weems and his wife are trying now to clear their names and “expose how the seditionists now in control (of) Celebration Church maliciously and unjustifiably ruined (the Weemses') ability to work in their chosen profession.”

The new complaint says the report was bogus and that Weems and his wife are trying now to clear their names and “expose how the seditionists now in control [of] Celebration Church maliciously and unjustifiably ruined Plaintiffs’ ability to work in their chosen profession.”

In addition to financial compensation, the complaint asks for court action"prohibiting the publication or republication of the defamatory narrative and statements." Besides defamation, the new complaint accuses everyone being sued of invasion of privacy and publicly disclosing private facts. Asked for comment on the new filing, Wedekind said he was looking into how that should be handled. A spokeswoman for Weems said the pastor wouldn’t have any comment and that “the court filing speaks for itself.”
