Tina added: "Jehovah's Witnesses are closed to the outside world. Michael knew that by abusing kids in the religion, nothing would be said about it. ...
When Tina later became a single mum, hypocrite Porter claimed she was guilty of a mortal sin and shunned her. She said: "He didn't approve of sex out of wedlock and said I'd condemned my child to death." Yet he molested kids in the religious community, convinced its reclusive nature would keep his secret hidden.
He didn't approve of sex outside of marriage eh? I wonder what sexual
pleasures HE was enjoying when he made that comment. What a
hypocrite.
Still, it's impossible to be married to an 18 month old child anyway.
He clearly didnt feel that you had to be married to the person you were having sex with, you just had to be married. Then it would be OK to have sex with, well, little boys and babies.
God help us. We dont even get the pleasure of him getting persecuted as a nonce in prison.
I've been told that a small group of disgruntled folk have been keeping a vigil outside Michael Porter's home in North London. Bethel, apparently aren't happy with the media for disclosing his whereabouts.
Stories of media indescretions are being bandied about. A poular story, (from a bethelite) is the one about a Kent journalist who wrote a piece about JWs a short while ago. I understand that she put a copy of the front page of the watchtower in her article but gave the impression that wife swapping was one of the topics in the watchtower magazine . The legal department, I understand, wrote a strong letter of protest.

Church paedophile walks free comment here Weston & Somerset Mercury, UK -39 minutes ago Aug 29 2007
An elder in the Jehovah's Witness church who sexually assaulted a baby and a toddler will never be safe on the streets said his Clevedon sister as he walked ... An elder in the Jehovah's Witness church who sexually assaulted a baby and a toddler will never be safe on the streets said his Clevedon sister as he walked free from court.
Michael Frederick Porter molested 13 victims in North Somerset.
The married church elder, who grew up in Portishead , groped boys as they slept in bed or took advantage of tiny children as he babysat them.
The 38-year-old, of Friern Barnet , London , was only brought to book after he was reported to the elders of the Jehovah's Witness church in Portishead .
Porter then made a full confession to his own church group in London .
He admitted three charges of committing an act of gross indecency and 22 charges of indecent assault and was handed a three-year community rehabilitation order and a Sexual Offences Prevention Order stopping him from having unsupervised contact with children under the age of 18 and living or sleeping at an address where there are children under 18, until further order.
However his sentence outraged his sister, 40-year-old Tina Hughes, from Churchill Avenue, Clevedon.
Following the hearing at Bristol Crown Court she said she was 'absolutely distraught' for all her brother's victims and the fact he 'walked'.
"He has gone back to London and left us to pick up the pieces. He hasn't lost anything. He hasn't even lost his wife. He hasn't been affected in any way. He can go away and pretend nothing has happened because he doesn't have to live here.
"He is who he is, a paedophile. He will never be safe on the streets."
Robert Davies, prosecuting, said not all Porter's victims were aware they had been abused, including an 18-month-old baby and a three-year-old boy.
He said the sex attacks happened in the 1980s and 1990s. One victim was repeatedly molested as he slept in bed and woke once to find the defendant on top of him.
Mr Davies said the last victims Porter interfered with were aged just five and seven.
Telling how the paedophile was forced to confess his sins, Mr Davies said one victim reported him to the elders at the Jehovah's Witness church in Portishead where Porter's family were said to be members.
"Michael Porter was entirely apologetic for what he had done and said he would speak to his elders. He sent his order a text message to say others had been involved (victims).
"He arranged to make a confession to them. He was advised sensibly to go to the police," said Mr Davies.
He said the defendant handed himself in to police in Weston-super-Mare last October and confessed.
Tabitha Macfarlane, defending, said her client knew he had destroyed and injured people's lives.
"Any show of public hatred towards him he understands," she said.
She added: "But for his admissions, his incredibly full and frank admissions, the matter would not be before the court today."
Sentencing Porter, Judge Thomas Crowther QC said: "This is a case which in my experience is exceptional, in a sense historic and revealed by you in unusual circumstances which I am sure are linked with the faith by which you now run your life.
"I'm satisfied, having the advantage of a number of reports as to your early background, that the reasons for your behaving as you did are complex and personal and reveal that you were subject to pressures which make it understandable that you should have acted as you did in this case.
"What's important, in terms of sentence, to realise is that you had changed your life before there was any question of these matters being revealed and I'm as satisfied as I can be, whereas in some circumstances punishment by way of imprisonment is inevitable, this is not one of those, and the proper sentence is a community rehabilitation order. -------------- Danny's submitted comment: It's about time! Yes,the Jehovah's Witnesses religion is NOW reporting their criminal cases to the Police and claims to have handled this case properly.
