Apparently Evans has managed to keep Dijana and their two chikdren. How elderly are Dijana's parents?

LMsA said:
"He's deliberately muddling the issue by playing semantics (dating, seeing, engaging with) but evidently they all mean the same thing."
It's when people use these words games that court interpreters have to "stop interpreting" and ask the judge to allow them to clarify with the person giving the testimony. Court cases can be won or lost depending on an accurate interpretation. Also, interpreters can be sued for misinterpretations.

I feel sorry for the poor judge if this ever does actually go to court. I also feel sorry for the poor interpreter if this ever does actually go to court.

In Evans’ facebook post, he said:
“Suffice to say,not that its anyone’s business but of those I met in Thailand, sex workers or otherwise, nobody was a minor by either Thai or US law and all were in their 20’s or older.”
So, if Evans ISN’T talking about having sexual relations with female persons in Thailand, then why would it matter that nobody he met there was a minor? In fact, how would ANYONE manage to take a trip ANYWHERE and not meet a single person on that trip who is under 20 years old?

Again Evans uses his “but I didn’t kill any seals” justification.

It’s a simple concept.

Yes, I’d been wanting to at least be watching when it happened.

Did Watchtower remove both husband and wife from the pioneer role when the husband ceased to qualify? Evans had said, "It was felt that neither of us had been sufficiently pulling our weight in terms of preaching hours..." , but would Watchtower really have kept Dijana as a pioneer when her husband was removed in disgrace? Even if she had been a few hours short, I think they might have overlooked it, had it not been for Evans. I think that Watchtower may have been so ashamed of Evans that they just went ahead and removed them both.
P.S. MeanMrMustard,...and 5000 comments very soon!

So, Speer's defense was that he hadn't killed any seals?

On clubbing seals ...I once met an Inuit sister at a KH in the USA mainland. She was wearing a beautiful fur coat. When I remarked on it, she lowered her voice and explained that it was sealskin and that it was the only clothing item she'd kept from her former life when she and her husband had made a living as seal hunters in Alaska. So, I guess this story I've told gives Evans complete moral vindication for his illicit sexual practices.
