Brother Bowen,
If you can get my the airplane ticket, I will be a character witness for sister Barbara. My e-mail is opened. You also have my home tel. If you don't have it please e-mail me write away. I'm at a friends house but I should be home by 10:00 pm (pacific time). I don't work tomorrow so you may call me. I can also try to get a hold of my little sister (now 26).
The meeting place doesn't sound proper at all. My stepfather was DF by a 5 elder committee. There where at least 7 to 8 total in the hall (back room) that evening. They are just trying to avoid the media & more bad press.
I would definately have sister Anderson wired at least. Cameras would be even better. A live coverage would be ideal.
