0, I guess this doesn't matter for the poll but I did know someone who knew someone, she was a therapist who's a witness.

Witness for 28 years and in about 10 congregations. However, I didn't know much that went on, to tell the truth. I'm just like that. The point is, even if it were going on, I would be the last to know.
OOPS! When you have teens, you hear things. So, make that 1. A friend of my daughter's said her father (a brother in the cong.) molested her.

Hello Amazing:
I have to say 0. I never heard of this kind of thing until silentlambs blew the lid off this can of worms.
My elder father and elder ex-husband both were of the rare tight-lipped elders who kept judicial info from their families.
