A Memphis pastor who was once pardoned by Tennessee’s governor was arrested this week in connection with a half-million-dollar theft. DeAndre Brown and his wife, Vinessa, were indicted on Tuesday for 12 counts of felony theft, according to Tennessee’s Office of the Comptroller of the Treasury. The Comptroller’s Office said that the Browns misappropriated at least $600,000 in funds through Lifeline to Success, a nonprofit that provides re-entry services for former convicts.
