  “…so basically, the fox was put in charge of the henhouse, but not permitted to scrub his own name, so he essentially weaponized the two-witness rule to keep his own alleged acts under wraps, resulting in the problem becoming widespread, institutionalized, and unfixable under the current system…”

  I just remembered…

  …there was a particular GB member that Jaracz had a long-standing grudge against. Maybe he’s the one who made sure Ted couldn’t delete his own name from the DB.

  Anybody remember his name?

  And didn’t another insider once hint that Jaracz had essentially sabotaged or doomed the Org (unwittingly or otherwise)?

  I’d always wondered what that meant… maybe it was this.

  ThomasMore - “…Ted was on the list…”

  Was? Or is?

  The list still exists.

  ThomasMore - “Has WTC paid into the scheme for victims?”

  As of now?

  Not a cent.

  not sure if this was posted yet but the second gb member has been spotted with more than a mustache, and the first one going for a full beard (at about 3 minutes into the video):.

  Just assume all the news, good or bad, is fake, and you’re covered. 😁

  Article: Pa. courts weigh whether Jehovah's Witnesses elders must report confessed child abuse

  https://pennrecord.com/stories/654791353-pa-courts-weigh-whether-jehovah-s-witnesses-elders-must-report-confessed-child-abuse.

  harrisburg – after the commonwealth court of pennsylvania dismissed a petition from a group of jehovah’s witnesses nearly two years ago, which argued the confidentiality of their confessions shielded them from being mandatory reporters of child abuse, the supreme court of pennsylvania overruled their colleagues and decided the commonwealth court must re-examine the action.. in a 24-page memorandum opinion authored by state supreme court chief justice debra todd and handed down feb. 13, the court found that their commonwealth court contemporaries violated the coordinate jurisdiction rule – which states “judges of coordinate jurisdiction sitting in the same case should not overrule each other’s decisions” – by its initial pair of separate findings that ivy hill congregation of jehovah’s witnesses did not have proper standing against the commonwealth’s department of human services, and that a grant of declaratory relief would not terminate the legal controversy.. todd was joined in the opinion by supreme court of pennsylvania justices christine donohue, kevin m. dougherty, david n. wecht and sallie updyke mundy.

  justices p. kevin brobson and daniel mccaffery did not participate in the consideration or decision of this matter.. “appellant is a congregation of approximately 140 individuals in philadelphia, pennsylvania, who follow the tenets of the jehovah’s witnesses religion.

  Did the WT lawyers try and suggest that the Org would have to deal with hundreds of “spurious” allegations if this was enforced?

  Governing Body Culpability

  i've seen people say something along the lines that the authorities would like to/have been trying to subpoena (members of) the gb (in csa cases).

  my question is: why don't they?

  if the gb are issuing orders to cover up evidence in csa cases, and otherwise interfere in justice being served in those cases, then they are accessories before (and after) the fact, and theoretically can be arrested and charged as such.

  Personally, I suspect most mainstream churches would be happy to offer up the WTS for the legal system to make an example of.

  TonusOH - “…They preferred to come across as extremely insensitive idiots than to admit that the whole system was set up to railroad victims and protect child rapists.”

  Well, I suppose that’s one way to fall on one’s sword. 😒

  “…so basically, the fox was put in charge of the henhouse, but not permitted to scrub his own name, so he essentially weaponized the two-witness rule to keep his own alleged acts under wraps, resulting in the problem becoming widespread, institutionalized, and unfixable under the current system…”

  This would not have been overly difficult, BTW.

  A lot of the stories we’ve heard here have detailed just how severely fucked-up some of the SCA-related JCs have actually been…

  …ten bucks says the loyalists put in charge of the “investigations” would dutifully obey any marching orders, not just because they’d knee-jerkly defend the Org against any threat, real or imagined…

  …but go way beyond what was necessary or decent, simply because the vast majority of ‘em, as loyalists, wouldn’t want to consider just how deep that rabbit hole went, and were fucking terrified of just how bad it might actually be.
