    Tony strikes me as a proud pompous person who would be quite humiliated right now. Probably in his easy chair today nursing his scotch and possibly teasing a grandchild.

    Someone with access to him could offer to take him out to a quiet little pub, get him good and soused, and ask questions with their phone set to “record”.

    Lovely image ExBethelitepima but sadly he doesn't have any because his kids were Bethelites for many years. Do you know if Watchtower didn't destroy families (& prohibit having kids) I probably wouldn't have half the resentment toward them I do 😔

    Dang Wow didn't know how fast rumors spread in JW land. Someone heard from long time prominent JWs that Tony was in car accident. Other from bethelits that he was removed from bethel. Others that he was still in. Other bethelits said that he was sick and hade to abandon Bethel. Wonder what rumours going around me now that I don't attend meetings 😂

    On the one hand we are told as elders not to deal with rumour's only facts. But when there is a rumour that someone has possibly been immoral the elders are all over them asking questions. They say we can’t deal with rumours only facts but what if you can’t get the facts because the person doesn’t want to reveal? The elders push and push to get the details.

    we need to push and push to get the details.

    I remember one case of a brother who was rumoured to be having an affair. He eventually left his wife and stopped coming to meetings. He had no contact whatsoever with the elders even when they tried to ambush him coming home they were hiding waiting for a long time. They said we have to talk and he didn’t say anything so they had nothing.

    they say this is wrong they have to get the details but actually this is exactly what they are doing and hoping for with TM3. They hope them not saying anything and it will go away

    Balaamass2, thanks very much for this info. Let's hope it is accurate.

    Smart move on Watchtower's part to be the landlord. Few people bite the hand that feeds them. A lesson learned from harassing Ray Franz.

    True but in the case of Ray Franz someone very powerful was out to get him, Ted Jaracz. From appearances now, there is no one on the current GB who is that hostile to Morris.

    Reading between the lines I surmise Lett the clown is actually a cunning despot.

    I never would have thought I would have any feeling forTM, but this like watching a soviet purge.

    In actuality Purges came about under every WT leader

    I no longer see this announcement in JW News.

    Can it still be found elsewhere on JW(dot)Org?

    careful - “…in the case of Ray Franz someone very powerful was out to get him, Ted Jaracz…”

    Huh.

    It’s been a while since I read COC, so I don’t remember that, but I definitely find it plausible.

    That’s just the kind of disproportionally punitive action that an (alleged) sex offender with an authoritarian streak a mile wide would take, the moment he felt the slightest bit threatened.

    And Old Man Jaracz would have absolutely felt threatened simply by Ray’s general decency.

    Hell, I’ve long suspected Jaracz maneuvered his way up the WTHQ ladder and ruled with an iron fist specifically to position himself to deal harshly with any perceived threats.

    Its an old and well-worn tyrant’s tactic, after all.
