Pickering’s bio online reads as follows:

“Mrs. Leisha Prather Pickering is a 1977 Briarcrest graduate. Mrs. Pickering received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communicative Disorders from the University of Mississippi where she was also a cheerleader. Upon graduating from The University of Mississippi, Mrs. Pickering served in missions work in China, the Philippines, and the Dominican Republic.

“Leisha’s husband, Chip, serves as the Third District Congressman from Mississippi. She currently owns her own event planning business where she has coordinated events for Presidential Inaugurations and planned the 9-11 Widows’ Baby Shower in New York.

“When Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast last September, Leisha organized a non-profit organization called HANDS: Helping Americans Needing Disaster Support in which they supplied and coordinated relief for thousands of Mississippians. Her efforts during this disaster were featured on national news programs, including Focus on the Family, where she was praised for the effectiveness and compassion during the disaster.

“Leisha, husband Chip, and their 5 sons are residing in rural Madison County, MS.”

Chip Pickering has issued to press the following statement in response to Leisha’s suit:

“I still believe it is in the best interest of our five boys if our differences are resolved privately and before the appropriate court and not in the media.”
