Wife: I stand by Jehovah paedo
By ANTHONY FRANCE
Crime Reporter
September 17, 2007
THE wife of vile Jehovah’s Witness paedo Michael Porter vowed to stand by her man yesterday.
Porter, 38, who abused a baby and 12 other young boys, was released by a soft judge last month.
The Sun tracked him down to his new home, near where he strolled hand in hand with loyal wife Joanne.
The couple mingled with shoppers — including children — in Edgware, North London.
A family friend said: “Joanne says she married Michael for better or worse.
“He is a changed man and she is proud to be seen out and about with him. Her love will save him.”
But a shocked mum who saw Porter out shopping said: “He should be swinging on the end of a rope, not walking the streets as a free man. He’s a disgrace.” Porter is still a Jehovah’s Witness and calls at the homes of local people unaware of his sick past to promote the faith.
Joanne’s loyalty mirrors that of the wife of disgraced actor Chris Langham who was jailed for ten months on Friday for possessing child porn.
A judge showed mercy after reading a moving letter from the star’s wife Chrissie, 54.
On the streets ... Porter strolls past mum and baby (PHOTO at the link above)
Porter — a ministerial servant to Jehovah’s Witness church elders in Clevedon, Somerset — molested boys by putting his hands down their trousers in “playfights”. One victim was interfered with as he slept in bed while another woke to find Porter on top of him.
He abused the boys — aged from 18 months to seven — when he was trusted to act as a babysitter, take kids camping and host sleepovers. Porter — supported in court by Joanne — carried out the attacks over a 14-year period in the 1980s and ’90s.
Judge Tom Crowther caused outrage when he spared him jail for 24 counts of indecent assault and gross indecency after hearing he had undergone therapy.
He gave him a three-year community rehabilitation order at Bristol Crown Court, banned him from working with under-18s and put him on the sex offenders register.
The judge said “personal” issues in Porter’s childhood made his actions “understandable”. However, Porter’s own sister Tina Hughes, 40, branded the judge “rubbish” and disowned her brother.
She said: “He’s an evil monster with no soul. He’s not human. The fact he is flesh and blood is irrelevant to me. To me he is 6ft under. Dead.”
The Attorney General is considering whether to appeal against the sentence.

quote from above link from Kent:
It seems they work other places than Africa:
Posted by Steve on Friday, October 12, 2001 at 20:43:13 :
I'm in the process of researching the activities and background of a French NGO called AIDAFRIQUE. This NGO has provided humanitarian assistance in various African countries and Vietnam through a subsidiary NGO called AIDAFRIQUE AU VIET NAM. AIDAFRIQUE has previously assisted and been assisted by UNHCR, but is not a UNHCR Partner.
I would appreciate it if anyone with "any knowledge" of this NGO would provide such to me. I am particularly interested in knowing whether it is an approved NGO Partner of any UN department.
Thanks.
if it is still a current charity, and OMG offers something other than tracts to the hungry, i'd like to know more about it.
if it is still a current charity and is a current NGO then the watchtower still has current ties with the United nations. I'd like to know more about it.
i tried bumping up the old thread but got no interest. i'm hoping this thread gets some. and hopefully someone has some more up to date info on this charity.
i see recurring references in various posts.
what is it and what has it to do with the wts?.
reply here, email, and/or links very much appreciated.. -amnesian
bttt

I ran across this charity name today and used our new handy dandy search feature to see if it had been mentioned here.
I was amazed to see the watchtower DOES have a real charity?
anyone have any more info on this? why was it created? was it because of frances decision to tax the jw's?
is it still an active charity? if it is, it "was" or "is" an NGO so that would mean the watchtower still has active ties to the un.
