  jwn night brought a big crowd in to the conference call.

  lady lee, one of the moderators on this board, helped so many people to really understand the inherent problems in the watchtwer org.

  her soothing and comforting voice allowed for many people to open up dialogue with her.

  Lady Lee I think your a wonderful women with great insight.

  I haven't really shared my story here yet. But I just want to thank you for your hard work to help victims of abuse.

  My child is a victim of molestation and we are a couple of years into trying to heal, but it's a struggle everyday.

  Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

  JW's as well as workmates testify as character witnesses for the accused murdurer. Was glad to see that her family had many on their side of the courtroom as well.

  Interesting how the elder got on the stand saying the victim wasn't angry. Yeah right!

  I was looking at the open access public records for this case and seen that a reporter from 20/20 asked for permission to cover the trial.

  That would be a nightmare for the WTS. Here you have an elder who is accused of murdering his wife a few hours after another elder comes to their home in the middle of the night because the wife is upset her husband has been spending a lot of time with a recent widow in the congregation who's husband died of AIDS. The elder tries to use the clergy petenant rule in order not to testify and when that fails he testifies as a hostile witness.

  Then we have the computer searches from the accused about "deadly poisons for humans""effects of cyanide on humans""can you suffocate from a trash bag" not to mention "sex with HIV"

  Sucks that the poor family and children of the victim has to go through all of this mess. If he was a decent human he would just have plead guilty. Because he sure looks like he is.

  Thanks Purple,

  I have a preteen and these suggestions will really come in handy.

  We are newly inactive and it's a whole new world to her..many of her friends no longer call her or invite her anywhere now that we are not at the meetings

  She has her school fiends but they knew she would never accept their invitations when we were active JW's so they remain only at school friends. Times are really confusing to all of us right now but I know how important it is for young girls to have friends.

  Thanks again,

  Truth

  Phase One: Facing Our Abuser...

  by cognac in

  i think an important part of facing my parents is first writing a letter to my brother - who got it the worst.

  then, i will talk with him and see if he would like to do this with me.

  but, first and foremost, he has to know how i feel.

  the thought of it scares me so much i can't even think straight... just writing this makes my heart race like you wouldn't believe.. i need to face my dad and mom.

  my dad abused us, my mom allowed the abuse.

  i need to face him with my two older brothers - the ones who got it the worst and who never faced them about it.... i know my mind will go blank so i'm simply going to write out what i have to say and read it to them.

  I have no advice because you will have to figure out what's good for you.

  I will tell you it's very healing to speak out and confront those who have hurt you.

  For my child and myself that was in a courtroom facing her molester and telling a judge and jury what he had done.

  I wish you all the best.

  You will feel better once you speak out.

  So does anyone know what the elders do with the information if someone is HIV positive or has AIDS in the congregation?

  Is there a warning given to the congregation?

  Just curious as to why it would be such a big deal that the elder didn't want to answer the questions.

  Check out the link on the top for today's article it's getting very interesting. Looks like the elder is being treated as a hostile witness.
