SAN ANTONIO –Douglas Phillips, whose career in Christian ministry included making Christian movies, finds himself in his own docu-drama: Lourdes Torres-Manteufel is a former family friend who claims Phillips kept her around as a personal sex object.
She filed a lawsuit this week, seeking damages.
The 29-pages give graphic details of groping and fondling of the then-21-year old’s body, but stops short of alleging the two had sexual intercourse.
“As a public figure, I let people down,” said Phillips. “She has alleged certain things that are absolutely false. They are made up.”
Phillips, with his wife Beall at his side, spoke exclusively with KENS 5.
In 2013, Phillips voluntarily resigned from his leadership position at the family’s Baptist Church in Boerne, Texas.
