My heart sank to my stomach when I read this. Something has to be done to stop this sick, destructive religion.
I now know way too many, who have taken their lives because of the JW's. Those parents should be made aware of their part in her death. They deserve to suffer. Maybe it will finally make them think too.

Mark,
What a hateful betrayal of that poor child -- who is still a baby in years -- first by the WTS, then by the parents! A violent beating would have been kinder than destroying her baby pictures in front of her. Sometimes I wish there was hell after death because I know 12 men from Brooklyn (along with their predecessors) who deserve to rot there.
We are all in shock over this tragedy. So very very sorry.

Mark, would it be appropriate to get a 'snap-shot' of this young persons short life. She must not be forgotten, as I suspect some would rather she was.

My deepest sympathy to you and the young womans adoptive mother. I know something good will come out of this. I just can't undwerstand how her parents can live with themselves. Some "Christian" religion.
Last week, the JW parents of this young lady, burn't all of her baby and young childhood pictures right in front of her, telling her further that she was now considered completely cut off from her natural family. This obviously distruaght her very much, extremely distressed she was.

Have you made a funeral arrangment yet? Do her parents know about this? This is so so sad! My heart goes out to you all.

This poor girl. I am so sad. Please, please get this story in the media. This needs to be told. This tragic story needs the attention of the world. I personally cannot directly hold the wt responsible for burning the child's pictures. I honestly don't think that they teach or even condone such behavior? However, the wt is soley resposible for teaching the HATE that brings to fruition this kind of unloving and cruel action. This story needs to be heard loud and clear that shunning is wrong. She must have been in such deep pain. I'm so sorry that this happened. I feel sick. I would like to have more details Mark..I want this story of this child's pain to be in the Headlines of American newspapers. She was a silentlamb and the timing for the story is appropriate. So sorry (((((((((((((((Adele))))))))))))))))) I can't imagine your pain. Please do not have even a touch of guilt. You are one of God's angels to be sure. Thankyou for lending her your hand and trying to show her what love is. She was just too damaged to feel it, I guess. This breaks my heart. Mark, my thanks to you for trying to help her and please accept my hugs, my brother. My e-mail is now open and I would really appreciate a more complete story because I want her story told. I want the world to see how this religion with their delusions of grandeur and hateful teachings beget not love but sick hate. I am so horrified and saddened.((((((((((Mark)))))))))))) love, dj

Thankyou everyone for your thoughtful words.
I'm ok, I've been through this before on one or two occassions, know how to cope.
Adele still came into work today and was brilliant in her training groups session, despite the pain she is in both physically and obviously, emotionally. She right now feels like going to the local KH and basically bombing the place to smithereens, a sentiment I share btw.
She doesn't yet want any messages to be sent to her directly via email, maybe next week. Adele has to now make the funeral arrangements and also to support the rest of her family who understandably are pretty devastated by the news. Another of her own daughters was an absolute best mate of Chantelle's, extremely close, must be hitting her very, very hard too.
In time, I certainly will pass on your kind thoughts to them all, sure that'll be appreciated, just not right now.
Been a strange day, all told. This afternoon, I had to wade through the detail in the Iraqi Dossier for placing my comments upon the think tanks database in London. Stretched my mind a tad, but plenty of room still left for me to carry on as normal, please do not worry about me, I always cope just fine.
Take lots of care of yourselves the lot of you, ruddy balmpots, but I love you all.
Best wishes
Celty
