  Of Jehovah's Witnesses

  William H Bowen

  PO Box 311

  Calvert City, KY 42029

  Dear Brother Bowen:

  We corresponded with you on June 1, 2002 in an effort to set up a date to hold a judicial hearing with you.

  You informed us that you were not available on the date we selected. Therefore, we have made arrangements to hold the hearing on July 24, 2002 at 7:00 P. M. at the following address:

  Kingdom Hall

  86 Foust-Sledd Road

  Benton KY 42025

  In accordance with the usual procedure, followed by Jehovah's Witnesses, when you meet with the judicial committee, no tape recordings will be allowed at the hearing, no attorneys may be present at the hearing, observers are not permitted at the hearing, and due respect must be accorded to the elder who is chairing the meeting.

  Very truly yours,

  For Judicial Committee,

  Ronald Cary

  Fax: 270-338-5084

  CC: L Rush Hunt, Attorney at Law

  But can you have witnesses? Looks like they are trying to cover all bases to keep you from having a fair hearing.

  These idiots have no clue what word "optics" means.

  Ooops, I wonder why they cannot have recording devices at the meeting???

  Is that in the flock book?

  Dear Mr Bowen,

  Just a brief note to express my appreciation that someone has stood up and been PROVED to be right. The panorama program showed the society up for what it is and the control that they so crave is finally slipping. You put me in contact with the producers and I am very grateful.

  I think we should all be proud of silentlambs and all involved.

  Thanks

  Justlittle, yes, it is in the flock book, though I am not sure of the page number.

  Such requirements protect them legally, but provide no rights for the accused, basically.

  It is official policy to deny anyone at a judicial committee meeting any witnesses or any record of the meeting. I know, I have a tape of them asking whether I was taping things at the start of mine
