  Former elder wants your advice--PART 4

  by Confession in

  so now that the entire midwestern region seems to know about this "confidential" judicial committee, i suppose it was time to get started with it.

  we arranged to have both accusers come at specific times.

  i ask, please, for your level-headed, thoughtful advice.

  I disagree, and here's why.

  If the victims were children when the report was made to elders, it should be reported to police, by law.

  If victims are over 18 yoa when report is made to elders, the legal REQUIREMENT to report is moot, altho' anyone who chooses to report may do so without legal ramification.

  When police investigate an abuse outcry, they consult existing records of past reports of abuse related to the named perpetrator. A report of past abuse can support probable cause for a search warrant, or basis for the detective or officer to take a subsequent outcry seriously, ESPECIALLY if the subsequent outcry is anonymous. REPORT!

  If adult abuse survivors choose not to cooperate with an investigation, so be it.

  Most states have strong protections from any liability or legal ramifications for those who report child abuse.

  Confession asked for my advice; here it is.

  Y'know, i don't mind OPINIONS... i mean, after all, REASONABLE minds may disagree, but it seems all the emphatic, uncharitable, attacking opinions come from those who have done LITTLE , if anything, to change the status quo. THAT bugs me.

  If you believe passionately in your opinion, then get up off your *ss and DO something about it.

  After you've given time, effort, passion, and life's blood to CHANGE the system, then ya gotta right to a strong opinion.

  Not before.

  do you think that any of us could spot a 'plant' if they were really good at their job?

  what do you think their job would be, misinformation, discouragement, gather personal information, instigate fights between members?.

  do you think they would even care enough about little 'ol us to bother?.

  She is a strong, courageous and tenacious woman who has given much, and lost much, in the pursuit of truth.

  Few have done more in the 'cause', few have lost more.

  She does SO much that doesn't get public exposure...

  for those of you who don't want to read my post in the anderson thread here is the abbreviated form:.

  legal misrepresentation is not the same as the common dictionary definition.

  legal misrepresentation requires that the bad actor knowingly and deliberately lied with recklessness.

  Oroborus-

  I have the complete article. Want it?

  BTW, got my law degree from Baylor, and wrote for the Law Review there.

  The law school provided the antithesis of a 'christian' education, and is completely separated from the undergraduate school.
