Hint: It ain't "watchtower.org"!
Yep, news of this court case is now the most popular result returned when you google "Jehovah's Witnesses".
You get links to the NY Times, Dauly Mail, and USA Today.
More exposure - Google "Jehovah's Witnesses" and what is the first item listed?

Google does return searches based I think on previous searches by you so it may not provide the same lists for everyone.

Chariklo, I tried "settlement" at jw-media.org . This was the only result that pertained to them.
For Immediate Release
November 21, 2007Jehovah’s Witnesses care for victims of child abuse
For the sake of the victims in these cases, we are pleased that a settlement has been reached. Our hearts go out to all those who suffer as a result of child abuse. Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide are united in their abhorrence of this sin and crime.—Romans 12:9.
We do not condone or protect child molesters. Our elders expel unrepentant sinners who commit this crime. (1 Corinthians 5:13) In the United States, over 80,000 elders currently serve in over 12,300 congregations. (Acts 20:28) During the last 100 years, only eleven elders have been sued for child abuse in thirteen lawsuits filed in the United States. In seven of these lawsuits against the elders, accusations against the Watchtower Society itself were dismissed by the courts. Of course, one victim is one victim too many. However, the incidence of this crime among Jehovah’s Witnesses is rare.
Congregation elders comply with child abuse reporting laws. (Mark 12:17; Romans 13:1) We do not silence victims. Our members have an absolute right to report this horrible crime to the authorities. The October 2007 issue of our monthly journal Awake! features the cover series, “Keep Your Children Safe!” These articles clearly show our concern for protecting children from sexual abuse.

"We do not silence victims. Our members have an absolute right to report this horrible crime to the authorities."-JW-media in 2009.
Then, For what reason, have some of us were witch hunted and DF'ed for not silencing and reporting this horrible crime to the authorities after you posted it in 2009?
J R Brown, I personally know a person who got DF'ed for showing your post to the local elders that is very similar to this one that you posted on JW-media.org! You wish I am lying, do you? I wish I am too!
Ok, I am back to the original topic.
Yes, it is #1, 2 and 3
type, Watchtower Scandal.
First 3 are the threads from JWN.
1. UN Scandal
2. Financial abuse of a senior by the WTS.
3. Candace Conti case.
