Dinner In This Historic Michigan Mansion Comes With A Beautiful Garden Setting

A lumber baron built this house with 218 windows, 20 fireplaces, and Detroit’s first private home elevator. Today, that same mansion serves Beef Wellington by candlelight. The walls are made of rose-colored jasper from South Dakota. Stained glass from Tiffany’s of New York still catches the light. I can’t imagine a grander place to cut into a steak.

'Victims' in Kingdom of God case defect as David Taylor trial looms

Two women whose sexually explicit messages with Kingdom of God Global Church “apostle” David Taylor dominate the forced labor indictment against the religious figure insist they were not victimized or forced to perform sex acts and provide custom-ordered nudes , raising questions about their value to the government as witnesses at trial.
