Lee Admiraal - Hate Crime Conviction in the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church
Lee Admiraal and his father Myles Admiraal are prominent Plymouth Brethren Christian Church elders and also directors of the large USA business Synergi LLC who sell architectural hardware, stairs and railings. Lee Admiraal and his wife Tami Admiraal have been recently touted as the ideal Plymouth Brethren Christian Church couple in a podcast called "Lee and Tami Admiraal - peaceful pathway" The podcast was used to slander and belittle Lee's brother Lane, who left the PBCC after being physically and sexually abused by PBCC members in Montreal.
The podcast DID NOT MENTION that Lee Admiraal and Myles Admiraal were convicted of homophobic hate crimes and ordered to pay $10,000 in restitution to the gay couple they terrorized. Their crimes included shouting "Fucking faggots!" at the couple as they drove by, threats of violence, and throwing fireworks and toilet rolls at their house.
In court, Lee explained that his treatment of the gay couple was because he as a member of the brethren and so disapproved of their lifestyle.
