    By the way, this video is not new, but it appeared within the last day or two I reckon, because the link was not on the page a week or so ago when I last visited this site.

    It was originally there as a follow up to the Dateline Story and was recently placed back there. Agree.

    The interviews themselves date back to 2002.

    I was there yesterday afternoon(jw-media) and no clip so it's very new indeed.

    At the very end of the clip it says, copyright 2002 so maybe it was done after the dateline show.

    JR Brown is black? Huh, I guess that doesn't really matter but I always pictured, well, J.R. from "Dallas" or something...

    It would be good if we could send emails to jw-media requesting information about Cano, and how many other pedophile elders there are at Bethel that they holy spirit has not been concerned with uncovering. I can't find any email address on either of the Watchtower sites. Does anyone know what the watchtower media email address is?

    Thank you Vitty,

    It will be effective to send emails asking what is going on about the whole pedophile issue. It has to affect the people that have to read the emails coming in.

    When I was in Aussie Bethel the Secretary to the Service Department left and went virtually inactive as going through all the problem letters that he had to resolve, including pedophile cases was more than his faith could cope with.

    Whenever it was recorded is irrelevant, they havent said anything about what actions they are taking in terms of protecting potential victims as well as those already damaged; they havent said anyting that is verifiable and to top it off....on the list of priorities is 'helping the perpetrator' WTF?

    How can the WTS help the perpetrator; he/she needs medical and psychiatric help, not some fix all solution such as pray more, study more and get to meetings more! I am sorry but I am f**ing furious!
