This is a win and will effect how field service and other congo activities are conducted. It has to b/c the wts has been found negligent of not providing proper supervision for children. I know if I was among the boe's I'd make sure that children only worked with their family and I bet that is what is going to happen. When I say children I think it will extend all the way to age 18 b/c anyone under 18. Also, if it is known that a perp is a family member, can't imagine how they handle this one, except that the child can't be around that family member alone while engaged in wts activities.
This will just become a cat and mouse game of people lying and saying they did not see a child with someone not their parents. PBROW, I completely agree with you , I am sorry I was ever a member of this rotten org. that only cares about itself and not the welfare of anyone .
This victory and how it is based may help others cases to go forward easier. I hope someone eventually takes this to the SCOTUS b/c if we do have a duty to WARN. May there be many more victories for the walking wounded and hopefully it will greatly inconvenience the congo's and the wts. I know if I was a member of a boe and having to take all the responsibility I'd be thinking of jumping ship.

part 12 paragraph 21, I have the last half. wow the victim and parents are on trial. They must have a good reputation. Reminds me of rape cases where the morals of the person raped are more important than the truth of the matter.
The following questions should be answered with regard
to the accuser: (1) What is the level of maturity
of the child or youth? (2) Is he (or she) describing
conduct that one his age would not normally know
about? (3) Is the child or his parents known to be serious,
mature? (4) Is his memory consistent, or is it
intermittent, or does it involve repressed memories?
(w95 11/1 pp. 25-26) (5) What is the reputation of
the parents? (6) Are they spiritually and emotionally
mature? After carefully considering the matter, the
branch office will then give you direction as to what
information about the allegation should be shared, if
any, with the elders of the new congregation.

My hubby and I had heard that there were unauthorized assemblies being held (80's ) and some of the "apostate" tapes came from those gatherings. We were never invited to any of them but we did hear about them. I was actively opposing the boe in 86-- if only I had known how many more people there were. I knew they were wrong not from reading apostate literature-- I knew they were wrong from reading the Bible, even the NWT shows them to be false prophets. I knew there were some apostate groups but we never were invited into them either. These apostate groups infilitred the congos and some were elders and MS .. In one congo I atteneded I found out both a MS and elder were apart of the apostate group. The elders were actively trying to out these groups ( mostly younger people late teens and 20's ) but they hung together really tight.
I get sick thinking about this time period . It was a horrible upheaval in the Borg , from Bethel to the local KH. You never knew who was spying for which side. I still want to slap someone silly when I think of them trying to force my old demented mother to get rid of her early WT books. I still have them, they belonged to my grandfather .
I grew up in this Org. and did not even recognize them from about 73 onward. When 75 failed people left and the accusations were flying. Infighting among boe's and some really dirty stuff happened to some nice people.
I hope they Rot in H*ll.

billboards can be effective. I recall one on Interstate 635 ( LBJ for Texas natives) when Timothy McVeigh was on trial. It was called Highway To Hell , can't recall anything else other than that and his name. Very effective.

This link was on another thread and when I watched It I was-- so heartbroken. It was a painful watch for me b/c I recall that time period so well. There was just outright apostate hysteria. People were being dragged to the back room on any kind of suspicion of apostacy. Some of the boe's did some really dirty underhanded things against folks they considered apostate. Many ( boe's ) were just like company men who would have buried bodies if they'd had to. My mom was told to get rid of or burn her books early WTS books b/c " the apostates were using them against us". I stopped them from destroying my GF's books. Da*n them to H*LL.
If only I could have seen this at that time. I got in possession of a few tapes that were being passed around but nothing like this. For me it would be another 10 yrs. before I could walk out the door and 6 yrs. more before I was completely done with jws.

how I wish I could have seen that film all those years ago.
want to note at 37:35 in the wt. article " Days like Noah" ( words to that affect), that higher ups in the ORG are have become involved in homosexuality, CHILD MOLESTING etc. They admit this in writing.
That was a devastating film to watch as those people where in their late 20's early 30's as I was at that time. So much of my life gone .
I just posted this on Facebook. Hope others will read this, IN FACT, this film deserves it own thread so NO ONE will miss it.

That was not a very mature a thing to do. People have a right to assemble for religious worship even if we personally don't like it or agree with it. Doing things like this just make the apostates look like crazies who would disrupt and otherwise uneventful meeting.
