former elder heads to trial on sex charges
news & observer, nc - 14 minutes ago .
pittsboro -- a former jehovah's witnesses minister accused of repeatedly having sex with two underage girls in the group's siler city church is scheduled to go ... .
Conversely, Oroborus, why would you presume the allegations of the GIRLS are false?
If you read the article closely, the issue before the judge was the ADMISSIBILITY of physical evidence, and testimony by an expert witness ABOUT physical evidence,. which the public defender of the perpetrator asked the judge to disallow.

...two ladies park at the entrance of my driveway (thereby blocking my egress), get out of their mommi-van, and approach me smiling.. i don't know either of them.. the elder gal asks me if i'd be interested in learning what will happen 'in the end times'.. i am dressed for the courtroom, carrying a bunch of documents related to litigation against the watchtower in california and texas.
when i turn to respond, several of my draft documents slide out of my daytimer and (spat!
) on the driveway.

I am dressed for the courtroom, carrying a bunch of documents related to litigation against the Watchtower in California and Texas. When i turn to respond, several of my draft documents slide out of my daytimer and (spat!) on the driveway. The younger gal stoops to pick them up for me, while i open my car to throw the rest of my stuff inside.
She sees the heading and looks at me, still smiling, trying to figure what's up.
The older ladie gets a strange look on her face and hustles the young girl OUTA there.
(needn't share the same air longer than necessary...)
It was weird, but made me sad, especially for the young girl.
Weird. It was my first ever 'service' call....
(But hopefully I'm now off the 'call back later' list, doncha think?)

YES!
Heaven forbid your children be exposed to any un=controlled apostate thought!
can someone give me some feedback on what they would do in this situation:.
last weekend my best friends husband told me that three years ago he caught (and spied on for about half an hour) my husband and my very best friend "getting hot and heavy" (his words) in our spa and that he watched them because "he found it hot".
the three of them decided that they would not tell me and kept it a secret for the last three years until he told me (because he was drunk at the time).
I'm sorry, but she's no friend.
Friends don't do that to each other, under ANY circumstances.
She's playing you...
If nothing is going on at present (which i doubt), the past still must be addressed.
If husband sees 'no harm/no foul' with this, how to trust him IN GENERAL?
Is everyone in this scenario expected you to simply 'sit down and shut up'?
Remember, you teach people how to treat you.
If you 'teach' hubby this is ok, and acceptable way to treat you, you aren't doing anyone any favors.
Talk to them one by one, not together, but close in time, so they don't have time to get their stories together.
Hubby has prob'ly already told girlfriend, if not gf's hubby, otherwise i'd say ask her and see how far she is willing to go to 'cover up' what happened. Can she look you in the face and lie convincingly? If so, what does that tell you about the 'friendship'?
In any case, VERIFY, then trust.
(But then I'm a lawyer, and PAID to be paranoid...)

thought you'd like to know that today at 11 am pacific standard time, which was 1 pm tennessee time, i was interviewed for an entire hour by mark furman on 1510 kga, the big talker show, originating in spokane, wa, population 250,000. former jw, linda jahn, was interviewed from 12:00 to 1 pm.
all this attention to our cause originated from the disfellowshipping and shunning of joel jahn in davenport, wa, a few months back.
at that time joel wrote a letter to the local davenport newspaper explaining the wt disfellowshipping policy used against him because he spoke out against the religion's child abuse policies.
Way to go Barb!!!!
Hang in there babe... you've done SO much!

ok this is one for the books, my wife's great grandmother who is a miraculous 94 year old cervical and ovarian cancer survivor and a 87 year old man from the hall were just counselled on the need for a chaperon!
it seems someone was disturbed that the two were alone in her appartment!
she is practically housebound and his visits to shoot the breeze and talk about the old times were the highlight of her week.
i hope, at 94 yoa, i have the backbone to tell meddlers to 'mineyobidness'... :)
there are many, many wonderful people here.
perhaps i'll check in once i am discovered and cast out of the org for the terrible things that i have said here.
for now i press on in the wt.
How sad.....
You will be missed.

i have never heard of this before, but i think it is worth knowing.. i have come across a rather strange story.
yes it is legitimate and some details are left out to protect this persons identity.. this lady is having problems in her feet and hands.
the doctors find that gangrene is setting in.. it is decided that the legs up to the knees must be removed to stop the spread of septic infection.. the fingers are also to be removed because the infections are starting in the extremities.. it is discovered that a tampon has been left in the vagina for a long time.
I frankly can't IMAGINE doing so....
I mean, YUCK.
i am almost finished with this book and let me tell you its very scary.
maybe i should not have read it because there isn't much i can do about it.. http://www.socioweb.com/sociology-books/book/1591023491/
edited to say: are there any concerned americans?
i say we give em Lubbock....
