the legal corporation that controls the activities of jehovahs witnesses, the watchtower bible and tract society of new york, has been ordered by a californian court to pay $20 000 001 in punitive damages to a victim of child sexual abuse.. the victim candace conti brought the action after the organisation refused to change its official policy of secrecy as to sexual abuse of children by congregation members.

So how will the local congregation pay its share?
Suddenly self insuring doesn't look like such a good idea!

The Awake! footnote in that same article mentioned that he died in 1996 at age 92!
I met him in 1998 and he was still alive, living in Southern California.
