This was a child custody dispute. My ex called in the "Brother" to testify that shunning doesn't exist. I had argued that if the children's father got custody, my own and my children's freedom of religious rights would be trampled as I would be shunned by my children. The children's rights to have two loving parents would also be called into question. That opened up a can of worms: Religious freedom v. Parental and children's rights.
I came into court with 4 ex-JW's who testified before he did as to the effects of shunning on their families. Jim Johnson, the elder, wasn't allowed in the court so as not to corroborate his testimony. So his lies showed blatantly to the court what they will do....lie to cover up their teachings....including the booklet that instructs them to lie.
I have been compiling the documents and info. for the U. S. Justice Department after speaking to them regarding the teachings of a group to perjure themselves. If anyone can help please p.m. me. I need affidavits as to the effects of perjury re: abuse, custody, etc.
