  anyone know who the jw was convicted of child abuse in shannon New Zealand?

  by nelly1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  was in the paper 2 days ago here is the story:.

  +node_landing+ masthead components/masthead story/node +normal_story_landing+ testimony 'chilling reading' -normal_story_landing- start components/story/common_contenta former shannon freezing worker who physically and sexually abused his stepchildren will spend five years in prison.. the 45-year-old man, who cannot be named because it would identify his victims, was sentenced in levin district court yesterday on 10 historic charges of indecent assault and assault, which occurred between 1991 and 1996 at the family home in shannon.. the names of his victims, three children and ex-wife, were suppressed.

  two of the victims and the man's elderly parents sat at the back of the court.. from the age of 7, his stepdaughter had endured sexual abuse that led to the man facing four charges of indecent assault and a charge of assault.. he would creep into her bedroom and touch her genitalia and in later years forced her to touch his penis, the court heard.. two boys under the age of 14 and the girl were beaten with a kettle cord, leather belts, wooden spoons and sticks, which led to four charges of assault.. one of the boys came forward last year and laid a complaint with police.. the man was also charged with assaulting his ex-wife.

  visit from witnesses at the door, they made me so mad

  i had witnesses knock on my door yesterday, oh man talk about deluded, those of you can read my posts from the past to see my story, but when they asked me what religion i was i said x jw not dissed or dissassociated, i breifly told them a few home truths including the short version of how i was treated in the org, this dummy obviously an elder and his wife stood there and said, i can promise you that it is most likely if you come back that wont happen to you again, the arrogance!!!!

  i said to them you cannot stand there and say that, sheesh who do they think they are, they dont know what i went through or what kind of wolves lurk in the cong i was in, i told them i had read ray franz book and i said you wont know any of the truths about brooklyn because you are not allowed to look on the net or read anything non jw.. the wife said yes we can we just dont look at apostate websites, i nearly laughed at her, she said to me ray franz was only dissfellowshipped because he went against the scriptures, grrrrrrrrrrrrr they make me so mad, they read me scriptures i already know etc and tried to justify some of the things that happened to me.

  oh man dont you just want to scream sometimes???

  did you have CO scandals or PO scandals in your cong

  we did one year we heard that our co's wife was caught doing it with a special pioneer than was staying with them, co was taken off the circuit, and our po"s daughter was having a lesbian affair with her roomate, of course i knew before she dissasociated herself i told a sister i knew they were and she told me it was slanderous, then 2 weeks later it all came out, she then ran off with a dissfellowshipped lesbian over double her age, the other lesbian was publicly reproved but i have since heard shes been disfellowshipped for lesbianism, a question?

  i thought if you were a po and one of your household was found to be doing something that bad then you had to stand down, is that right?

  im sure you'd agree this is soo ironic

  i am now much much happier....i spent 13 years in that org and was treated like a leper most of the time, i spent 14 years single and then married a brother i met on the net in another country...usa actually then what a freaken nightmare that was...he ignored me and i might as well have married a stone statue....and we wouldnt have known what to do with a woman even if 100 real men showed him.. i walked away from that mess and now after having been out for over a year i have developed a relationship with the most wonderful man in the world who isnt a witness and as a matter of fact is an athiest but is one of the most loving caring people i have ever met.... so now in effect im the happiest i have ever been in my life.... how ironic huh??

  and they say there is no life outside the organisation...well i say crap there is more real life...and more happiness than living under those horrible conditions where they pay a hell of alot of lip service to the word love ....and absolutely no practical application of it.i now.

  i now like alot of others have realised that a loving god could not possibly destroy so many loving people who are not jw.. its a bunch of crap..i beleive he saves on your individual attitude myself..what is in your heart and the motivation behind what you do.. anyway i just wanted to say that im one of those ones whos soo happy now that i left and i have a much better life now :)

  i think that 2 x jw getting together must make a good match

  by nelly1 in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  .

  because they both have probrably been thru similar experiences..and can share whatever spirituality is left..i know id prolly prefer an xjw guy to someone in the world :).

  any thoughts?
