USA, ARKANSAS | Man Fires Gun At A Group Of Jehovah's Witnesses
Centerton police arrested a man accused of firing close to 19 rounds at a group of Jehovah’s Witnesses on Saturday (Sept. 28 th ). John Baldwin, 35, bonded out on $50,000 Sunday morning.According to a probable cause affidavit, three Jehovah’s Witnesses approached Baldwin in his front yard at Rainbow Farm Road and Baldwin told them, “get your (explicit) off my property, I moved out here to get away from people like you.”
The report states the Jehovah’s Witnesses apologized and as they were getting in their car one of them heard “Get me my 9.”
Baldwin admitted to firing a gun at three Jehovah’s Witnesses when they drove away from his house, according to the report.
Baldwin was booked into Benton County Jail on felony charges of aggravated assault.
Several of Baldwin’s neighbors said he moved to the neighborhood less than a month ago.
Kristi Tidwell who lives nearby said she was home when police arrived at her neighbor’s home.
“My husband and I were working around the house, we had the blinds open in the back we saw probably seven or eight cop cars pulling in there,” Tidwell said. “It seems like there is no reason to do anything like that if they left peaceably why not leave them alone.”
Officers recovered 13 shell casings from the sidewalk in front of Baldwin’s house and a Springfield XDM-9.
5NEWS spoke to some members of the Kingdom Hall Jehovah’s Witnesses Church in Bentonville who visit Baldwin’s neighborhood. They declined to go on camera and said they didn’t want to make the situation worse. They said they have a no contact list for residents who don’t want to be visited.

JW Leaks has published court documents relating to the million dollar financial fraud involving Rodney Hatfield and the Watsonville Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses in California, USA.
These court documents include the sealed 2009 Indictment, Rodney Hatfield's plea bargain dated January 30, 2013, and the Criminal Minutes Sentencing Order summary dated September 16, 2013. Hatfield was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison in connection with his role in a conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
In pleading guilty on January 30, 2013, Hatfield admitted that he conspired with his co-defendant to obtain money from investors by means of materially false representations about the value of their investment accounts. Hatfield admitted that he defrauded members of his own Jehovah’s Witnesses congregation in Watsonville, California. As part of the conspiracy, he solicited millions of dollars in investment money from his fellow congregants and others to invest in Landmark Trading Company, LLC (“Landmark”), a company he and his co-defendant had set up as a holding company for the purpose of trading in foreign currency exchange.
Initially, Landmark did engage in some legitimate currency trades on behalf of its investors; however, the company quickly began to run a negative return on its trading activity. Rather than accurately report this negative trading activity to investors, Hatfield and his co-defendant distributed false reports to investors in e-mails that their trading accounts were profitable and increasing in value. While some investors did receive all or most of their principal back, Hatfield admitted his actions resulted in a net loss to investors of more than $1 million.
In his Plea Bargain, Hatfield stated:
"I agree that I am guilty of the offence to what I am pleading guilty, and I agree that the following facts are true: From January 2004 through December 23, 2008 . . . I defrauded members of my own Jehovah's Witness congregation in Watsonville, California. With the assistance of Myers I solicited my fellow congregants and others."
The sentence was handed down by the Honorable Edward J. Davila, United States District Court Judge, following a guilty plea on the first count of the indictment, a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1349. Judge Davila also sentenced the defendant to three years of supervised release following his term of imprisonment. Judge Davila did not impose a fine in light of the defendant’s financial circumstances. However, Judge Davila set a hearing for November 8, 2013, to determine the amount of restitution as well as set a reporting date for Hatfield to begin serving his sentence.

Body of Elders letter (October 1, 2012) Re: Child Abuse
http://www.sendspace.com/file/ehw1u6
[QUOTE]
RESTRICTIONS AND PRIVILEGES
22. It cannot be said in every case that one who has sexually abused a child could never qualify for privileges of service in the congregation. However, the elders will certainly want to be very cautious, especially when dealing with one who had repeatedly engaged in this kind of wrongdoing or who had been disfellowshipped for such an offense. Before privileges can be extended, such a man must meet the Scriptural qualifications of being “self-controlled” and “irreprehensible.” He must “also have a fine testimony” from individuals inside and outside the congregation. (Titus 1:6-8; 1 Tim. 3:2, 7) Elders should keep in mind what is stated in the January 1, 1997, Watchtower article “Let Us Abhor What Is Wicked,” page 29, paragraph 2: “Child sexual abuse reveals an unnatural fleshly weakness. Experience has shown that such an adult may well molest other children. True, not every child molester repeats the sin, but many do. And the congregation cannot read hearts to tell who is and who is not liable to molest children again. (Jeremiah 17:9) Hence, Paul’s counsel to Timothy applies with special force in the case of baptized adults who have molested children: ‘Never lay your hands hastily upon any man; neither be a sharer in the sins of others.’ (1 Timothy 5:22).”
23. Hence, privileges of service should never be extended hastily. Considerable time should always pass before one who has sexually abused a child is recommended, if ever. It would be up to the local body of elders to determine whether such a recommendation should be made to the branch office, taking into account all factors in each individual case. Please note that unless specifically approved by the branch office, one who has sexually abused a child should not be used to conduct any meetings held in the congregation or in a prison, and he does not qualify to work on any Kingdom Hall project other than one involving the congregation where he serves as a publisher.
24. If the elders as a body conclude that one who has sexually abused a child in the distant past may now qualify for privileges, they should assign two elders to call the Service Department.
