Michael Tait Accused of Drugging and Sexually Assaulting Minor, Flashing Penis To 13-Year-Old
Former DC Talk frontman is facing a fresh round of allegations after the Guardian released a long-form investigation into the musician detailing allegations of drugging and sexually abusing a minor, along with exposing his penis to and masturbating in front of a 13-year-old boy.
Michael has previously apologized for some of his actions and admitted, “I used and abused cocaine, consumed far too much alcohol, and, at times, touched men in an unwanted sensual way,” but all the alleged victims in these cases were adults and not minors.
The Guardian shares that they “interviewed 25 people in the Christian music industry, most of whom say they had prior knowledge of allegations that Tait had engaged in abusive behavior.”
Covering his backstory and rise to the claim, Tait is alleged to have dangled the possibility and promise of advancing the music careers of several young men if they engage in sexual activities with him after plying them with cocaine and alcohol. These tactics were not relegated to adults.
Davis says he was 16 when he met 37-year-old Tait in 2003 at a Nashville party that was loaded with mainstream celebrities…
Davis says that Tait always mixed their drinks, and claims he often felt pressured to drink heavily. One night he recalls the drink tasting strange, and Tait insisting he finish it. “Suddenly, I felt super sick, dizzy, nauseous, going in and out of consciousness,” he says. “I woke up in the closet, and he had my pants down, and was giving me a blowjob. I pushed him off as best as I was able in that state, but he pushed me down, and then I punched him twice and left.”
Davis says he believed he was drugged by Tait. He was 17 at the time.
Nearly a decade later, in 2012, Davis alleges he sought to move past what happened to him, his relationship and acquaintanceship with the famed singer restored in order to get help launching a CCM label coupled with being gaslit for years that what happened to him was in some was his own fault.
Davis claim he was at Tait’s house when Tait offered him thousands of dollars to have oral and anal sex with him, prompting Davis to call his mother and sneak out of the house. Davis told his mother and a family friend what happened- in accounts corroborated by the Guardian- and then never spoke to Tait again.

Another incident involving minors has emerged.
One young boy, Israel Anthem, alleges that he was 13 years old when Tait exposed his penis to him. Anthem was with his family at an event honoring his grandmother, the famous gospel singer Dottie Rambo, where Tait was also in attendance. A huge fan who would play his cassettes nonstop, he and Tait took pictures together.
A few weeks later, Tait ran into them while at a restaurant, and Israel was surprised at one point that they were in the bathroom at the same time, sharing side-by-side urinals:
“He was still at the urinal when I was washing my hands, and as we were talking [about a CD that had just come out] I noticed his penis was out, and he was facing me, turned away from the urinal. I thought he was putting his penis away, but then he was rubbing his penis, and making eye contact, while I was talking.”
Anthem recalls this lasting anywhere from 30 to 60 seconds, with Tait “visibly aroused” and “fondling himself”. Back at the table, a family member recalls, Anthem looked “white as a ghost, absolutely terrified”. Anthem later described the alleged bathroom incident to that family member, who corroborated his story to the Guardian.
At the time of this writing Tait, whose apology previously stated he was “committed to continuing the hard work of repentance and healing-work” which he intends to do “quietly and privately, away from the stage and the spotlight,” has not responded.

Like I said in the post on this, which manginas and whamens boo hooed about: Gay rapists cannot repent, as they have crossed a point of no return. So everyone praising the confession he posted is retarded. That is all. See you on Monday. I’ll be back then to harvest your libtard tears.
Of course, for legal reasons, I post this followup post, that injects the word “allegedly” all over the place, since the accusations aren’t proven in a court of law yet, So he is allegedly a gay rapist. allegedly allegedly allegedly blah blah blah. Maybe its all lies and somebody is just doing a “waycism.” Unlikely, allegedly. But you libtards can, allegedly, hold on to that straw for hope, allegedly.
Looks like the Leftist retards are going to pretend they never defended this gay.
There is nobody in any circumstance whom the Lord does not invite to repent. Saying otherwise is a statement not from the heart of the Gospel but from the zeitgeist of a hurt world. You or I or someone else might find it too challenging to acknowledge forgiveness, but the King said that “all sins will be forgiven man.” We must not only stand by the Bible, but live by it; our hearts must beat by it, our lungs must breathe by it, and our words must echo it. There has never been, is not, and never will be anyone beyond the Savior’s salvific reach. And we affirm this not to minimize any given act of darkness, but to underscore the incomprehensible power and might of the Light who saves us all.
That is not quite true. Scripture says otherwise. Jude, for example, certain false prophets are “condemned from long ago”. And 1 Thess. 2:11-12, God deliberately ensures certain ones will be condemned. They’re already too far gone. Not because any are beyond Jesus’ reach, but because they have rejected Him and delighted in wickedness to a degree that God basically says, that’s it, times up. At that point, then, God is not only no longer inviting them to repent, but has deliberately turned them over to a reprobate mind to ensure they will be condemned.
However, as far as we are concerned, because we don’t know, we cannot look at anyone and say ourselves that such an individual is beyond redemption. So our attitude should be as you indicate, JDA. We’re not God. We have to assume they’re not beyond redemption, because we don’t know, and because God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance 2 Pet. 3:9.
Correction … 2 Thess. 2:11-12.
Jesus plainly teaches that blasphemy against the Holy Ghost AND pedofilia are unforgiveable sins. What else can it mean to say that it is better to tie a millstone around your neck and drown yourself than to commit that sin? It means it can’t be forgiven. A gay rapist who raped underage boys has no ability to repent. He’s going to hell. And any church that lets him in is foolish. Any pastor who does not exclude him from its church, is evil.
I understand that you’re reacting out of justified emotions, but I like to think that you as well as I know what the Bible does and does not say. I wish you peace.
There is also a greater responsibility to defend your flock than to be gracious to the worst of the worst. Every Protestant pastor should pre-emptively excommunicate him, and bar him physically from entering their doors. If he’s gonna be forgiven, let the Papists have him. He’s no different from their priests anyway.
