  Whose moral code do you think Watchtower should act by? I am curious to hear.

  I think that I should not impose my moral code on wt but that wt should be free to choose and act by whatever moral code wt likes.

  Richard, if US law protects the comunications of child abusers under the setting and relationship defined by said law as it relates to the church, how can the state pass mandatory reporting laws that seem to go against the 1st Amendment?

  And either John would have to confirm that he doesn't know all the facts or confirm that he was told the final settlement amount.

  And that is only for a Court to decide if what someone construed is true -it may or may not- but a Court may find enough evidence that it is and Plaintiffs and attorneys may ironically find themselves as Defendants wanting to settle instead of having to pay the expensive price to defend -win or loose the case.

  Does anyone know what the Complaint states is the compensation Stephanie said she wanted in this case?

  She "settled" because she got what she what she wanted.

  Maybe or maybe not. It is only your opinion.

  The compensation she said she wanted was stated in the Complaint she filed with the Court.

  I have a question that requires an opinion:

  If Plaintiffs knew beforehand without a verdict from the Court that wt would be found legally liable by the Court, why did Plaintiffs agree to settle?

  It only has to do with the testimony of this trial.

  And you have read all Court transcripts of this case or only what was posted with commentary on this thread?

  Based on the testimony, they did the right thing; they quit before it got worse, much worse..

  Maybe, or maybe it was the other way around had the parties not agreed to settle. But maybe you are right.

  The Watchtower defense was so weak you could say it was crumbling. Or nonexistent to begin with.

  In a Court of public opinion. But in a Court of law, the jury cannot leave the Court room and reach a verdict before the party is over. They are required to listen to the entire case.

  If you can show law that Defendants were found legally liable of anything in this case, you can post it on this thread.
