Greetings from Candace Conti
by AndersonsInfo incandace asked me to tell you thank you for all your kind expressions of support.
this really means a lot to her.
she wants you to know that she is coping well with all the stress and excitement, even though she's had years of anger and frustration because of being abused for so long, first by the molester, and then by the wt.

Plaintiff awarded in punitive damages -21M & 1 dollar. Total award, 28M & 1 dollar. Here's more info
by AndersonsInfo inthe plaintiff, candace conti's goal from the very beginning was to bring enough attention to this problem to incentivize watchtower to change its policy of secrecy.
the award can be explained as it was decided: separate compensatory and punitive damages.
the punitive award is established in law to punish wrongdoing - here, the conscious disregard for others - and deter that conduct in the future.

Momentum Builds
by stuckinamovement inif possible it would be great to send a copy of the new "shepherding" book and the recent confidentiality letter to contacts in the media.
the society will try to paint this as an isolated case and that it is in no way related to their policies.
the documents mentioned above show that this is not the case.. what is next?

I wonder whether Love & Norris are ready to form a class action?

I was under the impression that the punitive damages the WT has to pay is the whole $21 million + 1 dollar? Plus they have to pay 27% of the $7 million compensatory damages. http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/06/15/12225753-jehovahs-witnesses-ordered-to-pay-more-than-20-million-to-woman-who-said-she-was-sexually-abused?lite

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

Does this improve the chances of a class action lawsuit?
