Somebody (not sure who) has their facts wrong. Seems like this Philly paper is the only one mentioning the Jehovah's Witness church. Others say it was the Pentacostal Church.
I searched for other stories mentioning JWs, but couldn't find anything else.
P.S. creating links isn't working on the ipad... sorry
Thanks, LEAVING QUIETLY for the additional info. I guess it's going to take some time to get this story right. . . and I can relate to your iPad woes - it sure is a pain in the ass to make links clickable.
This is exactly what I like about this forum, we can collectively gather and share information, and get a least some idea of whats going on out there in the world. . . unlike in the Watchtower Total Information Control Society.
The more you jump to conclusions without all the facts, the more you look like those "hateful apostates".

Maybe Rick Fearon had the facts wrong on purpose.
OK - the news this morning did say that the suspect had confessed to not only his relatives, but also to someone "at a religious retreat" that he had "killed a kid in NYC". They did NOT say it was JWs that he confessed to. The word "retreat" itself is non-JW. The media was pretty clear in that the person who tipped off the police was a relative (not religiously related) to the suspect - who was alerted by the FBI search of the basement of that building.
There are two things in the original post story that made me doubt the suspect was actually a JW -
First - the Wife and Daughter said they had a restraining order against him. That is not JW behavior against a JW husband.
Second - the guy was plainly observed to openly smoke cigarettes on his porch by the neighbors - again, not JW behavior.
What (may I ask) does Rick Fearon have to do (or know about) with this???
Someone gave the wrong details to the Media. I just do not who spilled the wrong facts to the media. I was thinking maybe Rick Fearon, maybe he has nothing to do with it at all.
