Gary,
I had a hard time following some of your thoughts, but the above quote I completely understand.
A couple weekends ago, at his request, I had a quiet meeting with the single JW man that I trusted the most. In the course of our heart-to-heart, the subject of pedophilia came up (by me). I asked him if he'd tell me of a pedo that he knew of if the three of us were in the same congo.
Without hesitation, my elder friend, the man that married me and my wife, said, "no." Having a three year old daughter, a little one Joe had earlier said loved him, I cringed. I told him basically what you said above. That if it were not for the edicts of the WTS, he would never hold the position that he holds now... the policy of "don't tell."
Right then, he told me that I might be right. Part of me felt sorry for him.
