It would appear that a substantial financial compensation is being awarded to this brave woman - but on top of that she deserves a full, open apology - what's the chances?
JW lawyers will be looking to minimise damage to the org and will blame the accused. A real shame as this woman, the victim, should be of paramount importance.

The book in question may well be a hoax - but that does not mean they all are.
May I suggest some "open-minded" research on the subject.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/life-after-death-largestever-study-provides-evidence-that-out-of-body-and-neardeath-experiences-may-actually-be-real-9780195.html.
"experts currently believe that the brain shuts down within 20 to 30 seconds of the heart stopping beating and that it is not possible to be aware of anything at all once that has happened.. but scientists in the new study heard said they heard compelling evidence that patients experienced real events for up to three minutes after this had happened and could recall them accurately once they had been resuscitated.".
how are people having "experinces" while there is no evidence of heart or brain activity?.
A good book on the subject is Proof of Heaven by Eben Alexander.
He is a neurosurgeon and was not a believer of NDEs - until he had one.
His experience was exceptional in that they had him hooked up to every monitoring device imaginable and zero brain activity was proven - and yet he was off somewhere else having an experience he describes as hyper reality - more real than what we currently experience.
I for one believe them to be real experiences - their are just too many of these NDEs happening for it to be easily dismissed.
