I am not too sure about Austrian law but this could mean that instead of going to jail for 15 years (well, he is 74 now?) you go to a clinic without any limit.

This has also happened in other countries. Lydia Gouardo lives in France and was raped by her father for 28 years. Despite she looked for outside help, nobody cared and they brought her back to the perpetrator. Even when she told the doctors when giving birth to her six kids that her (step-)father is the father. Everyone in her village knew but they did nothing. She was not free before the perpetrator died.
Lydia Gouardo has recently commented on the Austrian case. French press generally leaves this out. It is about pointing fingers but keep your own home clean. It is like the Watchtower. It is disgusting.

Diary of a thinking to return ex-Jw
by reniaa ini thought long and hard about posting this but the mis-information on this site finally persuaded me, i already accept many may not accept what i say on face value and get their appologist pens ready for making sure no pro-witness propaganda slips through the net on this site but here goes....... i've been on this forum for a few months my first post was about how i was thinking of returning to jw's and at my sisters recommendation to look at this site for both sides of the story before taking that step.. i faded from jw's 10/11 years ago now i left my hubby at the time divorced him to going on to have more relationships and kids, i was definately given the impression after asking on this site and with what i read that if i tried to return i might face df or at least a jc but definately a couple of elders questioning me over what i've been upto these last few years - none of these have happened.
i talked with an old jw friend (yes i do have then and she never shunned me quite happily accepted an offer of coffee from me and my asking for a chat) i told her i was interested in going back and was very frank about what i done in the last 10 years but not sure how returning was done now, she quite happily said she go ask for me to find out.. result!
she came back this week and said "all i had to do was goto meetings again" and an offer of a study was there for me if i wanted it to explore the open doubts that i had expressed i now had.. not quite the fire and brimstone welcome this site led me to believe would happen.. i will keep you posted with further updates if i feel the need to put them in future.. .

The same happened to my father. He had faded for personal reasons (men not teachings) and regularly visited the German board. Then he went back, says the Internet is full of lies and shuns me. I do not get it but I have to accept it. Maybe Platons Cave Analogy is the answer.

"Victim" is "Opfer" in German so I assumed that is what you meant. Is it "offer" in Finnish?

Police says they have no reason to believe that the wife was in the know. The perpetrator is said to be highly intelligent having woven a net of lies and deceit.

I thought meeting in small groups was a protection when persecution comes
by JimmyPage inso they're doing away with the book study?
i thought that was the safe haven when the authorities finally banned the meetings at the kingdom hall and persecuted us (according to jw prophecy), meeting in small groups at people's homes.
any thoughts?.

They have recently emphasized that the elders should have all the adresses of the congregation members. This might have been preperations to keep the control after the CSB is done away with.
