Last night I was visiting with one of my friends who works at the local police dept. She was talking about a guy that had to come in and register as a sex offender. He claims that this girl said she was 18, was really only 13 and he was convicted of rape, served 1 year in jail. He must now register as a sex offender at the police dept wherever he lives. Street address, no Post Office Box address. The dept of corrections sends out letters and they are not forwarded to a new address. They are returned and a $5,000 fine is issued for failure to register. He will have to register FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
My mind immediately contrasted this to the "punishment" the WT inflicts upon it's known molesters.( No privileges in the congregation) It struck me how truly dumb the WT arrangement is. They take extremely lightly, something that the goverment has determined is very serious.
I went on to tell my friend about the cover up of child molesters in the JW organization, and how they allow convicted molesters to go door to door as dateline showed. She was shocked.
