Who Really Controls the Governing Body
by LevelThePlayingField insince we neither can handle a challenge to god's power nor change the actual processes he has in place for the salvation of men, we will influence the men at our disposal.
we will use these men to formulate a religion and establish doctrines that heap reproach and shame to the very processes god has in place for salvation.
we'll establish our own process.. we’ll inspire men to change the bible and make it their own bible.

JWLEAKS.ORG is back for 2019 with a Scandal
by jwleaks inyep, we are back after taking some extended time off.. the jwleaks.org website had been archived for some time.
i was concentrating on other jw-related projects in relation to say sorry.. but the governing body of jehovah's witnesses, who no longer claim to be infallible, decided that in their fallibility the best use of 'dedicated funds' would be to launch civil action against me in a us federal court.
to this end watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, inc., sent their attorneys after me.

Thanks OrphanCrow. The document contains only the properties sold in the Brooklyn area that were directly related to the JWs HQ.
In addition to the property you mentioned there was also property sold in Florida.
Don't forget that since 2012, also the timeframe in which Watchtower New York lost the Candace Conti case, a lot of assembly halls and Kingdom Halls across the US started to be sold off.
Add to the above all bank accounts of all congregations were emptied except for a small monthly operating expense budget.
Then we had that memorable financial statement by governing body member Stephen Left in 2015:
"In doing the math we found that the amount of money will be much greater than the amount of money that we have coming in at this time."

To this end Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania, Inc., sent their attorneys after me. Didn't you learn after the failure of Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, Inc., when they went after my website. Silly dogs.
Notwithstanding the fact the I was merely caught up in a worldwide litigious and vexatious assault against law-abiding peaceful citizens perpetrated by the Watch Tower.
So, without further adieu, the first document release by JW LEAKS for 2019.
Watchtower New York Scandal
To kick off 2019 JW Leaks have published a 37 page unredacted file on all Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, Inc., properties sold in the State of New York between April 2004 and December 2018 for a Grand Total of US$2,081,520,000 (over 2 billion dollars).
DOWNLOAD: Watchtower New York Brooklyn real estate transfers
This document contains the Real Property Transfer Report for all Watchtower New York sales as well as the sale price, seller, purchaser, and the date of transfer.
Some 1.8 billion dollars of sales occurred from 2012 onwards after Watchtower New York lost the Candace Conti case and the jury awarded her US$28,000,001 later reduced on appeal.
Page 13 of the document relates to the sale of 67 Remsen Street, Brooklyn.
And this is where the scandal begins.

The NWT version that used it was produced by the Folio Corporation around 1990-91. It was the NWT on a whole pile of computer disks. I sent my copy to the National Library of Australia to archive.

Ronald L. Lawson Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, Queens College, CUNY – Papers on Seventh-day Adventism, with some comparisons with Mormons and Witnesses
9 January 2019
A question that continues to draw research in the sociology of religion is what factors spur the growth of religions (Kelley 1972; Iannaccone 1994; Bruce 2002; Hoge and Roozen 1979; Stark and Finke 2000). In line with with these previous studies, this article examines three well-known Protestant/Other religions that share many characteristics (supply-side factors): Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and Seventh-day Adventists. Data on the memberships of these three religions was gathered from 1960 through 2006 for almost every country around the world where they have a presence. Growth rates for those countries were analyzed while controlling for country-level characteristics (demand-side factors). The results of this analysis indicate that both supply- and demand-side factors are important in determining growth. The strongest predictors of growth are: organizational momentum in a country, the level of economic development, and several country-level characteristics.
