Most JWs don't have access, including Bethel wives. It wouldn't be surprising that not one female JW has access.

Slander is not a crime, it is a civil matter whereas harassment is criminal and he mentions harassing in his statement. He also says that he is seeking legal protection which suggests that he is not talking about suing but some form of protection maybe in the form of a cease and desist.
What's interesting is that he claims most of the information said about him is untrue but he does not mention Kim once or even what sex the 'person' is. He only refers to the person as having been a close colleague and volunteer.
It's sad that he has no understanding as to why Kim felt the need to disclose the information about him. How can he have any understanding of abuse victims if this is the case?

The Blue Envelope from Youtube had done some research into his history and found that in 1975 Anthony and his wife stood down from full time witnessing. It was that year that their first son Jessy was born. His second son was born in 1977. This means that this talk that he gave to his sons couldn't have taken place until the 1980s.

Is it just me or did he seem proud of the fact that he was paying prostitutes rather than having an affair?
There's a lot of censoring going on at ex JW Reddit, moderators have even asked that they use the term sex worker instead of hooker or prostitute. What term did Lloyd use?

Yes, in the latest GB update (2022 No 1) Kenneth Cooky explains the problems with social isolation and that even the bible talks against it.
He says
- One cause for anxiety is social isolation
- Proverbs 18:1 "Whoever isolates himself pursues his own selfish desires, he rejects all practical wisdom"
- There are ways of fighting back at the anxiety that isolation can cause in our hearts such as turning your camera on and waving when connecting to zoom meetings, turning it on earlier, leaving later and going into break out rooms.
They are blatantly aware of the importance of socializing and serious dangers of isolation (or shunning), and well know that their df policy is based on isolation. This shows what an unloving organisation this is.

Previously, the President of the WB&TS kept changing doctrine taught to Jehovah's Witnesses. Currently, the Governing Body does this.

Are you serious Road to Nowhere? You don't happen to have Irish Elders by any chance?
Changing it was just lording it over the congregation if it was not the preferred time as it isn't necessary until there is a return to the hall.

Youtuber, The Blue Envelope has done the most in depth research that I've seen. He has at least four video's on Anthony Morris Jnr (apparently that's his legal name).

McFree v. Watchtower!

That's great news.
I would imagine that the Watchtower has its own internal means of discovering the identity of Kevin McFee if they so wished. He uses his voice and I think his child's voice as well. A link to that video, requesting identification, in a newsletter to all elders, would likely give them that information. One benefit of being a united organisation. However, they wouldn't dare link to such a potentially damaging video.
Its funny that the Watchtower also thought they were onto something. They believed that Kevin McFee had obtained their footage illegally and I assume, that by persuing him, they would find the source of the leaks from Bethel. They would have been disappointed to discover that Kevin simply obtained the leaked footage from the John Cedars crew and that he had done nothing illegal. What a waste of time and money it has been for them.
Unfortunately, in their wasted efforts they have targeted a man who the court has proven, they had no cause to. It was their responsibility in the first instance to determine copyright infringement and it clearly was not. They are responsible for the pain and suffering caused to Kevin and should compensate him for this if they consider themselves Christian leaders.
