PRESS RELEASE
September 3, 2002
Press Conference Will Announce First Ever March for Jehovahs Witness Child Rape Victims
Support Group Seeks Investigation of Church Hierarchy
WHAT:
A local press conference announcing the Silentlambs protest march in Brooklyn, NY scheduled for late September. The marchers will be united by a common theme: they will all have experienced or been eye-witnesses of the machinations of the secretive Governing Body running the cult, which has allowed Watchtower policy to physically harm and emotionally ruin children. Kentucky-based Silentlambs, Inc. is a national non-profit organization formed to support victims of child abuse in the Jehovahs Witnesses religion.
WHEN:
Thursday, September 5, 10:30 a.m.
WHERE:
Buckhead Congregation Kingdom Hall of Jehovahs Witnesses
258 W Wieuca Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30342
(Near intersection of Roswell and Wieuca Roads.)
Local press conferences will be held at the same time at Kingdom Halls in over a dozen major cities around the United States.
DETAILS:
The Watchtower has established a child abuse policy that has consistently hurt abuse survivors and protected child molesters. A public statement will be made that the Jehovahs Witnesses leadership (Governing Body) must stop hurting children immediately. Silentlambs is formerly requesting the church to establish a tribunal to prosecute the governing body for their crimes against children.
