Back to the topic..
"as a protection to our children, former child molesters are not permitted to receive positions of responsibility in our religion." -- J.R. Brown (JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES, PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICE, PRESS RELEASE, August 7, 2001)
"People in the Organization who are accused of sex abuse are subject to a Hearing...
They are automatically removed from leadership positions and can't go door-to-door without other members' being present." -- J.R. Brown ("The Washington Post" Newspaper, May 11th 2002)
"People in the Organization who are accused of sex abuse are subject to a Hearing like the one Barbara Anderson attended yesterday, [J.R.] Brown said. They are automatically removed from leadership positions and can't go door-to-door without other members' being present." ("The Tennessean/Nashville" Newspaper, May 11th 2002)
"On rare occasions a member of a congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses takes up or reverts to the disgusting habit of child molestation.
Even if he gives extensive evidence of genuine repentance and has stopped his wrongdoing, the individual is severely censored by the congregation and is not protected from criminal investigation and/or prosecution.
Even if today years have passed, he does not qualify for any responsibilities in the congregation.
The individual is also directed that he should not be in any unsupervised company of children, including when he engages in any public witnessing.
Additionally, elders of Jehovah's Witnesses are alerted to any past behavior of such an individual so as to protect the safety of any children in the congregation with whom he comes into contact.
If the person moves to another congregation, the elders in the new congregation are notified; his record goes with him." (Jehovah's Witnesses Office of Public Information Press Release: Statement on silentlambs march, September 27, 2002)

Well those claims don't really correlate with what we know the Branch Office manual states. It's easy for an individual to stand up in court or before the press and be dismissive of the policies when there's no hard evidence to the contrary. However with the documentation procured it makes it a little more difficult to be convincing. -

"Pedophiles in Good Standing" has got to be one of the most f**ked-up phrases I've ever seen (no offense, UnDisfellowshipped).
The fact that it's based on fact...
