For decades, Ryan Scott has claimed to be a priest. He performed baptisms, weddings, and took confession. But former followers call him a con man.

Victims say he was scamming his loyal followers to fund a lifestyle which included extravagant purchases… such as a herd of premium llamas.

Every time Ryan ran into trouble, he would move on to another small Midwestern town and start his scheme all over again.

We examine how “Father Ryan” used deception and exploitation to gain trust and financial donations from the very people who put the most faith in him.
