  When have you been 'encouraged' by a brother or sister to do something you didn't want to do, or didn't feel able to do? And how did you FEEL afterwards?

  "I really don't care who goes to jail, as long as it's not me." .. I had a feeling your true colours would show themselves eventually. You don't care if your brothers are unjustly imprisoned, by a 'false witness' and a judge that's just out to get Jehovahs Witnesses, when they had 'no duty' to protect Candace anyway?

  "I'm not sure of what I would have done if I were in the position of those elders in 1993." .. That's okay, you can get back to us when you've had more time to think about it..(' don't know' wasn't an option for them, would you act if you were in the same situation today, but with the old laws which didn't require an elder to report..or not?) Prime also said: "what was conveyed to the police by the Kendrick family was much worsethan what was told to the elders." .. Which highlights the need to report even suspected abusers to police immediately, how can an elder possibly know what such a man is capable of, or how to get him/her help (until it's too late)?

  Essentially though.. Candace may have been abused by Kendrick during/after a meeting or whilst travelling to/from the ministry without anyone paying enough attention to remember.. Watchtower brief says: 'This case turns on the answer to one fundamental question: Did Fremont Congregation owe the Plaintiff a duty of care? The simple answer is "No" ' Judge says: '..Judge McGuiness ruled that a special relationship existed between Fremont Congregation and the Plaintiff that resulted in a duty of care to protect her' ..We await the next step. You still haven't answered my question though.. If YOU were in those elders position back in the early 90's, and you didn't have to report an incident you knew to be molestation to the police..Would you have reported it anyway, rather than leave an abused girl and her mother who wanted to preserve her marriage at that time above the safety of others (not judging her, btw) to go to the police, if they ever would? Or not? Please give a direct answer and explain why you would act/ why you would not, based on what moral principle. No doubt you'll ignore me again, but what can I do..

  He was a DO if you read this thread. As to how he is recently, you could ask Marvin..
