Feds say pastor's expenses too high for reported income

I've read about a number of these in the Charlotte area and beyond over the years. Do you think the feds are using a higher standard for religious leaders -- or what?

CHARLOTTE -- The indictment says Bishop Anthony L. Jinwright and his wife's expenses were too great for the income listed on their joint tax returns from 2001-2006 -- which included income from other businesses.
They say he evaded several hundred thousand dollars in taxes while spending lavishly on travel and luxury cars -- including a $175,000 Bentley GT he leased from 2005 to 2008.
