Blue provided Local 10 News a copy of the money orders she said she sent to Readon for the down payment. 

Readon is suing WPLG TV for $50 million, claiming several stories reporting on his business practices ruined his reputation.

Readon is the pastor of the New Beginning Missionary Baptist Church. 

According to a court document, the church, located at 2125 NW 155th St., is set to be auctioned off online on April 17.

Local 10 News has attempted to contact Readon for comment but has not yet heard back.
