JW-Media.org is strangely silent about the Candace Conti case. They haven't said anything about it as of the time of this post.
I decided to call the media department at this number (718) 560-5600. I identified myself as a researcher who also has some websites. I was asked for the web address of my website. I replied that I wasn't willing to provide that and then explained that I was only looking for a public statement about the Candace Conti case. I told him that I checked the jw-media.org website and couldn't find anything. I was told that there wasn't a statement. I asked if there are any plans to put a statement on the site in the future. He said "no". I then asked if he is able to provide a statement for people who call in like me. He said "thank you" and hung up.
I was surprised at how abrupt he was. I have called previously and the people I talked to were generally polite, even though I asked some difficult questions.
Of course, I'm only one person. You may want to call too and see if they treat you the same way.
It appears that they are going to keep silent about this issue for the near future at least. I wonder if they realize how guilty that makes them look.
