  I read 2011 version of "BOE letter index" and found that [BOE letter 3/3/09] was

  related to "CHILD ABUSE" and "regular pioneer applicants".

  Then I searched [BOE letter 3/3/09], But I could not find that letter.

  I found the thread on this forum and it said that the pioneer application

  procedure was somewhat changed in 2009 to minimize the responsibility of

  the society branch.

  Anyone can point out the exact phrase what BOE actually said?

  I want to know what was said about child abuse AND pioneer applicants in the letter.

  Some Japanese witnesses believe that child sexual abuse by JW elders happened only

  in the apostates brain. I read that one JW said even Candice Conti Case did

  not really exists. For them, apostates comments are all lies.

  I need to explain them by using BOE letters and reliable court transcrpts.

  So I need exact wording of the BOE letter.

  I hope some of you have the letter.

  I read these..

  What the letter says about child abuse is in the postscript of the letter and addresses the situation where an applicant for regular pioneer service answers yes to this question on the application:

  "7. Have you ever engaged in sexual child molestation? If so, when? (See The Watchtower, January 1, 1997, pages 26-29, and February 1, 1997, page 29.)"

  In which case these instructions applied:

  "If the applicant has marked “yes” to the question, “Have you ever engaged in sexual child molestation?” and this is the first time the elders have learned of the abuse, please contact
  the Legal Department as outlined in the letters dated July 1, 1989, and February 15, 2002, to all bodies of elders. Also, please review The Watchtower, January 1, 1997, pages 26-29
  and February 1, 1997, page 29. Thereafter, if the elders wish to appoint the individual as a regular pioneer, they need to send the application, along with a letter explaining the situation, in the postal mail to the branch office. Please wait for a response from the branch office before announcing the appointment."
