Its a shame the victims don't just go strait to the police instead of the elders first.
Its a shame the victims think they are going to get sympothy and the help they need from the cong. instead of reporting the crimes to the state.
I know too many people who were molested and had the elders cover it up from going to the law. Unfortunately, the crimes were too many years ago to pursue anything now. It just shows how long this crap has been going on.
