  I saw that one. I wonder why he hasn't decided to tackle JW's or the Koresh type cults.........or what about LDS?

  Today: A new episode of Dr Phil exposes the Children of God / The Family cult and child sexual abuse within the cult.

  The Family Cult

  Dr. Phil goes inside a shocking cult where 9-year-olds were known to have sex with 25-year-olds — on dates set up by their parents. What began as a typical 60s commune became a den of alleged sexual molestation, prostitution and extreme physical abuse … all in the name of God.

  Inside the Cult
  Dr. Phil gives an update on an abusive religious sect that he and his son Jay exposed last season.

  See the outcome of their exclusive reporting.

  Tortured Memories

  Several ex-members of the Children of God have been so haunted by the abuse, they’ve committed suicide. One survivor, Ricky Rodriquez, made headlines earlier this year when he murdered a former cult member and then killed himself. See his chilling story.

  A Daughter's Dilemma

  Kristi says she can’t forgive her father, Jim, for the years of painful abuse she suffered at the hands of this cult. They reunited after 16 years, but she thinks his motives are for financial gain.
  Will she be able to forgive and trust him again?

  The Family’s Legacy China and her husband John, left the group together. Her brother committed suicide last year, and she worries that more ex-members will suffer the same fate.

  How are they adjusting to life on the outside?

  October 3, 2005, 3:15 pm PDT Family MIA in a cult I was born into the Jehovah's Witnesses cult in 1957,i was the good little JW boy who got beat up in the school yard for not saluting the flag.This was the 'better dead than red' era of the 1960's Jehovah's Witnesses are a classic cult.The Watch Tower Corporation is a media publishing, real estate development, and convention sponsoring company and their literature all promotes the corporation and those goals. I have Jehovah's Witnesses family in Naples Florida who practice the Watchtower JW enforced ritual shunning that i have not seen or heard from in 15 years. I am not the only one,the 'fraud in the name of God' Jehovah's Witnesses have defrauded MILLIONS of followers. When the Watchtower corporate racket is held accountable for their misdeeds they scream religious 'persecution'. ------- Danny Haszard www.dannyhaszard.com
