Again this could be a good thing because such an exposure will hopefully effect change, and maybe as a result of this and the catholic debacle, religious organizations will be added to this list.
Let me tell you something about the law. Its full of gaps. A law is made when someone exploits a gap and it comes to light as a problem. For instance, take illegal drugs for instance. You know all the major schedule 1 drugs in america (let use ecstasy for example) was completely legal and on the street, you could go to a bar and buy it from someone. Its not because its not a dangerous drug, its because it was new and there was no law for it yet. But it didn't take long it became an illegal substance.
What the witnesses do is unethical and dangerous, its just not illegal yet
