He was not convicted of tax evasion, but was convicted of using his ministry housing allowance for two parsonages, which the court tried to say was illegal. He served ten months in the Atlanta camp. In 2012 the highest tax court in the United States finally closed the case when the panel of judges ruled that in fact, Mr. Driscoll had done nothing wrong and nothing illegal and had not abused the minister's housing allowance.

It was written up in the Wall Street Journal, among other places.
