Texarkana, AR - Jailed Evangelist Tony Alamo has hired a new lawyer to defend him against federal charges that he brought young girls across state lines for sex.
Alamo had been represented by Little Rock Attorney John Wesley Hall Jr. Replacing Hall will be Beverly Hills, California based lawyer Danny Davis.
Davis told the Texarkana Gazette that Alamo was concerned about the amount of trial preparation that will be needed and that he was looking for an attorney less busy than Hall.
Hall said he and Alamo parted on amicable terms.
The 74-year-old Alamo is facing a 10-count federal indictment in The Western District of Arkansas alleging he brought young girls across state lines for sex.
Alamo was ordered held without bond following his arrest after a raid on his compound in Fouke.
