former teacher jailed for trying to abduct girl in holywellmar 12 2009 by our correspondent, western mail.

a former teacher, businessman and senior jehovahs witness who tried to abduct a five-year-old was yesterday jailed for six years.. robert edward bill, 54, was told by a judge that he was still in denial about his predatory interest in young children despite a series of convictions.. he has been found guilty at separate trials of the attempted abduction of the girl in holywell two years ago, of indecently assaulting a seven-year-old 10 years ago, and of possessing 730 pornographic images of children.. prosecuting at caernarfon crown court, simon medland described how the girl had been returning home from a playground when bill, for malign purposes, drew up in his car and asked: have you seen a cat?.

by chance the girls uncle arrived at the scene at that moment and her mother, who had been watching from a window, ran to her.. mr medland said bill of the roe, st asaph, denbighshire, had been driving slowly around areas where he was likely to come into contact with children that same day.

I'm not familiar with the order of positions of responsibility within the Jehovah's Witness society.

I do know for sure that Bob was a prominant member in many ways ,which may explain the press's usage of the word 'senior'.

He is a member of a large extended family of Witnesses who, it seems, had managed to 'recruit' a substantial number of potential bible students. However, I know of one family who were eager to become Jehovah's Witnesses because they mistakenly trusted Mr Robert Bill and believed all of the watchtower publications and thier interpretation of the scriptures, but were rejected because they were unemployed and thier child (a boy) had Downs Syndrome (I was told this by a former 'Jehovah's witness') and therefore would not make good winesses.

As far as I know (I'm not a Jehovah's witness, I was just an interested person) he stopped being an elder when he was found to have indecently assaulted the seven year old girl of a member of the congregation.

I do however know that he was a prominent member of his congregation who regularly called from door to door on ministerial work, which is how me and my family met him.

He came across as a very charming, likeable and knowledgable man, so much so that certain aspects of his behaviour which would have 'set alarm bells ringing' had it been, say, another man, made one question ones own suspicions.

I don't know if he is disfellowshipped now, but I imagine he is, I don't think the Jehovah's Witnesses are without decency. Same goes for his wife and son I expect but cannot say.

It was actually the CID who discovered that members of the congregation, including elders knew of his offences but had until his at least, second arrest for atempted child abduction managed to keep it secret. For instance it was not reported to police when, once he'd commited so many vile acts and 'got away with it' he became careless and was discovered to have molested the youngest daughter of one of the congregation.

He attended the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses in Denbigh and held weekly bible studies at his home in St Asaph.

He did regular ministerial work, (in his quest to befriend families with little girls)

We first met him when he and other witnesses were doing thier field work/ministry in our area, calling from door to door.

We honestly thought he was a decent fellow and over the months of bible studies he charmed his way into our lives (as he had done with many other families with young children) and befriended us.

We trusted his family, wife , four sons, brother etc... and never realised he had other, sinister, intentions towards our children.

We now consider ourselves and our children very lucky that we declined his frequent offers to take our two little girls to play at his 'retreat'.

It transpired that all along that a large number of the congregation, elders included, actually knew all along that he was a paedophile and molesting young girls , but they managed to keep it secret until Bob became more and more careless with his crimes and was arrested for the attemped abduction of a 5 year old girl.
