“I get beaten up by Nicole Kendall Chinsamy multiple times, and I know y’all will laugh at me and call me all the names in the [book], but it’s cool. God got me.”
Emtee also accused Nicole of being satanic and throwing away his Bible, adding:
“Now she wants me killed because I caught her. I need help. Not financially or on no dumb sh*t. I have scars from this girl for years.”
