It occurs to me that now this case has gone as far as it has, NOW is the time for all of us, in the U.K at least, to start keeping this stuff in the forefront of the Media.
I was advocating that we waited until a final settling of Candace Conti's case (bless her), but I feel there is no need to wait any longer, we can get cracking and expose the WT for what they are, money grubbing, cold-hearted Scamsters.

We can use succinct comments on many reports of this case, not repeating what is known, but adding to people's knowledge about the JW attitude to victims of their failed policies.
Pointing out too perhaps, that the JW's, per capita, have a much larger problem of Abuse than say the Catholic Church, 140,000 U.K JW's., 8 million Catholics (from memory, check figures), and many cases of abuse within the JW ranks have already come to light in the U.K

"The victim remained silent at the time, and her mother gave evidence of Stewart’s good character at his trial. It was only in 1999, just before Stewart’s release, that A told her mother what had happened."
