Yesterday, the Tempe City Court dismissed a case against evangelist Doru Neamtu. Liberty Counsel defended Neamtu, who was targeted and harassed for street witnessing. Last September, Neamtu was peacefully passing out Christian tracts in front of the post office when a Tempe police officer accused him of "aggressive solicitation." His constitutional rights were further violated when the police officer arrested him on a bogus Failure to Provide Identification charge.
Doru Neamtu grew up in communist Romania, where he saw his dad jailed and beaten for preaching the gospel. His dad still bears the physical scars today. It is interesting to note that Liberty Counsel's Senior Litigation Counsel, Harry Mihet, who represented Doru Neamtu in court yesterday, was also born and raised in communist Romania where he lived until 1989, when dictator Nicolae Ceausescu was overthrown and executed. Both Neamtu and Mihet had Romanian fathers who were jailed by secret police for sharing the gospel. Yesterday, they stood together against religious persecution in America.
After being arrested last September, Neamtu shared Jesus with three fellow inmates, who each accepted Christ. When he was released from jail at 11:00 p.m., the Romanian evangelist still had one hour left until his customary midnight finish time, so he walked over to the exact spot where he had been arrested and finished his message.
Mr. Neamtu is dedicated to sharing the gospel of Jesus. There is nothing more important, and Liberty Counsel was proud to stand beside him in court.
Please pray for Liberty Counsel as we protect the "free exercise of religion" in America.
