Allegations and Denials: The Ongoing Daystar TV Controversy
In a recent episode of The Roys Report podcast, Julie Roys hosts Jonathan and Susie Lamb to discuss allegations of abuse, cover-ups, and corruption involving Daystar TV. The controversy centers on conflicting claims between the Lambs and Daystar TV President Joanie Lamb, who denies the accusations and attributes them to family disagreements over leadership roles.
Jonathan and Susie Lamb recounted the events that led to their allegations. They stated that in 2020, their daughter disclosed experiencing sexual abuse. Months later, Jonathan reportedly found Pete, a Daystar staff member, in a room with their naked daughter. Despite reporting these concerns to Marcus and Joanie Lamb, the Lambs claim the issue was dismissed without proper investigation. They allege that Marcus and Joanie later commissioned an investigation that falsely exonerated Pete.
Joanie Lamb, in contrast, has labeled the accusations as fabrications by Jonathan and Susie, whom she accuses of attempting to gain power within Daystar. She maintains that the matter was resolved years ago as a misunderstanding. However, Jonathan and Susie provided recordings and documentation to support their claims, describing a "cover-up" designed to protect Daystar’s reputation.
During the podcast, Jonathan and Susie expressed their frustration and shared their journey of faith amidst the trauma. Both emphasized how their Christian beliefs and resilience have sustained them through this difficult period.
The allegations against Daystar TV and the Lamb family’s conflicting accounts have captivated attention, raising questions about accountability and transparency in ministry. The episode concludes with a promise of more revelations in part two, where Jonathan and Susie will share further details about their termination from Daystar and concerns about their safety.
