    Dear Friends,

    Two Jehovah's Witness elders who fleeced a 100-year-old Deer Lodge woman out of her life savings and family ranch were sentenced to 25 years in prison with 10 suspended.

    This is not the first time that a Jehovah’s Witness elder was sentenced for fraud. In January 2003 another elder was sentenced for defrauding elderly people.

    Kelson Colbo, whose grandfather was Una Anderson's first cousin, said Erickson and Willis used Anderson's trust with the church as leverage to convince her to trust them with her finances.O_o

    That is just sick...

    It is also noteworthy that the pair of scumbags were also ordered to pay $6.5 million dollars in restitution.

    The other theiving elder was in Florida state, in the lower right hand corner of the USA. Montana is nearly 3,000 miles away in the upper left hand quadrant of the country.

    The fruitage of the WTB&TS made apparent.

    Its too bad the WTS comes off looking clean on this. It would have been nice to link them to this type of scam.

    Oh well. At least these men wont be harming to many people for a while.
