THE MAN AND THE BUSINESS FACT: Gregory Purdy is part of Birchwood Management Group, the firm that announced plans to buy the 13 acre Davis College campus in Broome County, New York from owner Adam Weitsman for $4.5 million. Purdy said the group was looking at putting an artificial intelligence university on the former Bible college campus, and stayed open to other uses including senior living.

Social media quotes attributed to Gregory Purdy come from the government's charging papers, not from anything a court found to be true at sentencing.
