Bishop
Lamor
Whitehead
One
of
the
men
who
allegedly
robbed
egregiously
gaudy
Brooklyn
pastor
Bishop
Lamor
Whitehead
was
killed.
Spotted
on
News
4
New
York,
one
of
the
alleged
suspects
in
the
2022
robbery
of
the
“Bling
Bishop”
was
shot
and
killed
by
US
Marshals
in
New
Jersey
during
a
standoff
at
a
hotel.
Per
News
4
New
York:
Shamar
Leggette,
41,
was
inside
the
MHO
Inn
and
Suites
on
US-1
in
Monmouth
Junction
when
US
Marshals
attempted
to
arrest
him,
sources
said.
A
woman
inside
the
hotel
surrendered
to
authorities,
but
amid
negotiations
with
federal
agents,
senior
law
enforcement
sources
tell
NBC
New
York
Leggette
came
out
shooting
at
deputy
marshals
and
they
returned
fire
killing
him.
The
New
Jersey
State
Attorney
General’s
Office
is
investigating.
South
Brunswick
police
officers
were
also
on
the
scene.
Leggette
and
other
armed
suspects
robbed
the
flashy
pastor
that
social
media
has
hilarious
named
“The
Niggler”
and
made
off
with
a
woman’s
wedding
ring,
earrings,
Rolex
and
Cavalier
watches,
a
man’s
gold
chain
and
wedding
ring,
a
Cuban
chain,
a
diamond
and
emerald
cross,
and
other
church
item
during
the
robbery
that
went
down
a
live
stream
church
service.
Two
men
were
already
arrested
in
connection
with
the
armed
robbery,
and
a
third
suspect
was
never
apprehended,
according
to
police.
According
to
sources,
Leggette
was
also
wanted
for
additional
crimes
in
Queens
and
Rhode
Island.
The
Bling
Bishop’s
Legal
Issues
Yes,
Whitehead
was
a
victim
of
crime,
but
he
also
had
significant
legal
issues.
In
December
2022,
he
was
arrested
by
the
feds
on
extortion
and
fraud
charges.
The
flagrantly
tacky
deliverer
of
God’s
word
allegedly
defrauded
members
of
his
congregation
and
was
also
charged
with
lying
to
the
FBI.
Welp.
