Oh my lands, Joy is such a poor speller. He expects to type all this out and we are to just believe it. Well I don't think so.
What about a LINK to where we can go look at it ourselves--otherwise I don't buy a word Gailon Joy says.

Re: pbjelly has been getting to the Root
Ohhhh my lands--even Joy's followers have demanded more documentation/links to what he says but as usual the excuses and platitudes come forth instead.
If it quacks like a duck and looks like a duck...

The law suit against Gailon Joy - not much to update
This is what I got after I contacted the state attorney general's office. At least I got a case number.
Thank you for contacting the Office of Attorney General Maura Healey. The Commonwealth's litigation against Global Advocates Foundation, Inc. and others, 2013-SUCV-03459, is still pending in the Suffolk Superior Court. Because this is an ongoing matter, we will be unable to provide you with any additional information regarding the case

Gailon Arthur Joy found guilty - again.
The man just cannot stop being an embezzler. So I wonder what explanation he is going to give his adoring followers about how innocent he is?

Sutton man ordered to pay $600,000 for conning homeowners
By Martha Schick GLOBE CORRESPONDENT NOVEMBER 06, 2016
A Sutton man has been ordered to pay more than $600,000 for stealing money he took from homeowners who thought he could help them through what turned out to be a phony forclosure relief organization, according to Attorney General Maura Healey’s office.
Gailon Arthur Joy was found liable for 68 violations of the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act in Suffolk County Superior Court.
He owes $367,371 in restitution, $170,000 for civil penalties, and $65,535 in attorneys’ fees and costs, although he may not be able to pay those amounts, according to the statement.
He is barred from offering any foreclosure-related services or accepting advance deposits for good or services, the release said.
Joy and his business collected and spent more than $350,000 between March 2010 and October 2012 by convincing homeowners to give him “deposits” of up to 25 percent of their monthly incomes, claiming that it made them eligible for mortgage relief programs, according to Healy’s office.
“This defendant made false promises to help people stay in their homes, but instead took their money to benefit himself and his colleagues,” Healey said. “This judgment should send a strong message that orchestrating foreclosure scams to prey upon vulnerable homeowners will not be tolerated in Massachusetts.”

Sutton Man Operating Foreclosure Relief Scheme Ordered to Pay $600,000 for Taking Illegal Fees From Distressed Homeowners
Defendant Operated Group of Businesses Falsely Advertised as Non-Profit Foreclosure Prevention Organizations
BOSTON – A Sutton man involved in the operation of a group of businesses that falsely advertised themselves as non-profit foreclosure prevention organizations has been ordered to pay more than $600,000 for soliciting and spending illegal advance fees received from distressed homeowners, Attorney General Maura Healey announced today.
Suffolk Superior Court Judge Paul Wilson granted a motion for summary judgment filed by the AG’s Office holding Gailon Arthur Joy of Sutton liable for 68 violations of the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act. Joy induced homeowners to give deposits of up to 25 percent of their gross monthly incomes, claiming the deposits were necessary to be eligible for federal and other mortgage relief programs.
“This defendant made false promises to help people stay in their homes, but instead took their money to benefit himself and his colleagues,” said AG Healey. “This judgment should send a strong message that orchestrating foreclosure scams to prey upon vulnerable homeowners will not be tolerated in Massachusetts.”
The order requires Joy to pay more than $600,000, including $367,371 in restitution, $170,000 for civil penalties and $65,535 in attorneys’ fees and costs. While recovery of this amount is uncertain, the judgment also includes injunctive provisions to protect consumers. Joy is prohibited from providing foreclosure-related services, serving as an escrow agent or accepting deposits from Massachusetts consumers for any goods or services to be provided at a later date.
The AG’s complaint, filed in 2013, alleged that since 2009 a group of five individuals operated a series of organizations claiming to offer financial and legal services, including foreclosure-related services, to distressed homeowners in Massachusetts.
Those named in the lawsuit included Joy, Paula Carvalho, Obeilson Roosevelt Matos, Pricila Trancoso Silva, John Charles Schumacher, the Alliance for Affordable Housing (AFAH) and the Global Advocates Foundation Inc., previously located in Everett; and the Alliance for Hope Network, Inc., previously located in Framingham.
The businesses portrayed themselves as tax-exempt, non-profit organizations, but operated like for-profit businesses, seeking financial gain for their officers and directors.
As alleged in the motion for summary judgment against Joy, between March 2010 and October 2012, he and the businesses collected and spent more than $350,000 in deposits that they received from homeowners and claimed would be placed in escrow for the homeowners to use to help mitigate their pending foreclosures.
However, the defendants in this case never properly accounted for the use of those funds and allegedly used the funds to pay operating expenses, including salaries and marketing commissions for bringing in new customers, and personal expenses, including at least one defendant’s residential housing costs.
The AG’s Office obtained consent judgments against the other individual defendants and default judgments against the businesses.
In 2007, the AG’s Office issued regulations that prohibit soliciting or accepting an advance fee in connection with foreclosure-related services, or advertising services without disclosing exactly what is offered to avoid foreclosure, among other unfair practices.
This case was handled by Assistant Attorney General Mychii Snape and Legal Analyst Sarah Petrie, both of AG Healey’s Consumer Protection Division and Investigator Kristen Salera of the AG’s Civil Investigations Division.

Re: pbjelly has been getting to the Root
What a terrible thing to do to stressed and vulnerable people, probably most of them older. Here is what the Massachusetts State Law says could happen to Gailon Joy. He could easily go to prison for embezzlement.
For money or property worth more than $250, penalties include a fine of up to $50,000, up to ten years in prison, or both. (266 Ma. Gen. Laws Ann. § 30(5).)
Sounds like Mr. Joy has a very shady character. And he presumed to put "blame" on Danny Shelton (with no proof) when he himself was cheating people out of their money while they were in very stressful situations and needed help desperately. What a shame for an Adventist to operate this way.
Be sure your sins will find you out!
