Fla. pastor convicted in NYC fake Hirst art case

This undated photo provided by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office shows the front and back of a counterfeit Damien Hirst spin painting. Kevin Sutherland, a Miami pastor, knowingly peddled phony examples of some of British art star Damien Hirst's signature themes, prosecutors said in summing up Sutherland's attempted grand larceny trial Monday, April 7, 2014, but the defense claims he was just an art-market novice who couldn't read red flags about the pieces' authenticity. Jury deliberations are scheduled to resume Tuesday.
