  I am surprised that more JWs don't "get it" about the 'money laundering' (for sake of a better way to describe it).

  I am so grateful that so many ex-JWs have done their part in bringing these things to light, and each of them have their audiences that they reach.

  What would we do without any of them?

  "Houston, we have a problem!"

  It is a "Public Safety Issue", institutions behave as badly as the law allows.

  Angus Stewart hit the nail on the head when he summed up his findings on his review of all those organizations.

  Basically: "Well, churches, orgs have tried this 'clergy penitent privilege/ repent, tell the priest, turn around stuff' for years, looks like it doesn't work. More children get hurt. We need to do something different"

  Report it to the police. Then you can do your 2 witness whatever B.S. Protect the kids.

  'If you reason something out; you will be influenced to make the proper decision'

  take a look at watchtowers reasoning in the first video from 46 minutes to 56 minutes regarding the 2 witness rule.

  the scripture the watchtower representative refers to is perfectly fine in relation to situations within context.. but how can the 2 witness rule be applied to a sexual assault or child abuse allegation when only the victim and the perpetrator were present when the crime took place?

  how can the 2 witness rule be applied if the perpetrator denies the allegation?..

  I remember that article WIFI, the WT is always going back and forth in their strategies.... like a snake.

  In the recent court case of Padron vs. WT, in San Diego, the judges called it estoppel:

  the principle that precludes a person from asserting something contrary to what is implied by a previous action or statement of that person or by a previous pertinent judicial determination.

  good evening, or morning, whatever the case may be.. just a couple of points about the jw monthly broadcast, and the "two witness" rule.

  i'm tired, so i'm going to be brief.. 1) i had a nice conversation with trey bundy about the flaws in the wt's "logic" concerning their pet scripture in deuteronomy.

  in short, their rnwt ( the most accurate translation of all time, because the fds were involved...) says that no one person can be convicted on the testimony of one witness.

  Good job DD!

  I agree, I think the WT just tries to 'distract' with all of these "we stand for the scriptures' tactics. (red herring)

  What are they realllllly doing?

  Well, when you listen to Geoffrey Jackson, during the ARC investigation, he answers the judge's question of "IF you MADE us report it to you, IF it WAS a law, we of COURSE would report child abuse IF it was MANDATORY." (basically)

  Why? Because you are right DD, they don't need to 'convict' anyone on one witness. They CAN investigate with only one witness...

  AAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDD

  There is NO scripture in the Bible that says "you cannot report it to the police!" In principle, Rom 13:1, 2 says  "Let every soul be in subjection to the superior authorities, for there is no authority except by God; the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by God. 2 Therefore he who opposes the authority has taken a stand against the arrangement of God" This would be 'perfect cover' for their 'new light' .

  
  

  Personally, I think the lawyers for WT & the GB would looooooovvve a way out, it if it was "mandatory to report". It might seem like they don't love it, but it is a lot like blood transfusions.

  Back in the day, Children's Hospital in Oakland had a standing arrangement with the judges, they could order a transfusion for a minor. in a flash, parents could do nothing about it.. After a while, witness parents could protest the state's involvement, but feel relieved that their child's live was saved.

  The same thing might happen if state "mandatory reporting" laws were changed to require clergy to be mandated reporters. Stay tuned!......

  The GB do not want to be sued, or said that "they are going against the scriptures." If they changed the "two witness rule" they would be so sued by so many people. Parents: "IF you would have let me investigate, if you would have told the police all these OTHER kids would not have been hurt!" Listen to the abuse victims as to why they are coming forward. A big part of the reason is to protect other kids.

  latest perspective of the san diego reader on wts loosing its $4000 per day sanction appeal.... https://m.sandiegoreader.com/news/2017/nov/10/ticker-jehovahs-witnesses-withheld-info-4000-day/?templates=mobile.

  In a second paragraph before the end of the article it quotes Irwin Zalkin as saying, 'it is his firm's position that sanctions should have begun in June when the judge Richard Strauss first imposed them.'

  However, although these penalties are minor in comparison to the millions WT could have lost in the previous declaration of a court, the court documents say that the court costs incurred by Padron (during WTs appeal process) will be reimbursed by WT.

  Watchtower Loses an Appeal

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  publication court of appeal, fourth appellate district division one state of california osbaldo padron, plaintiff and respondent, v. watchtower bible and tract society of new york, inc., defendant and appellant.findingwatchtower has abused the discovery process.

  it has zealously advocated its position and lost multiple times.

  yet, it cavalierly refuses to acknowledge the consequences of these losses and the validity of the court's orders requiring it to produce documents in response to request number 12. and, in a further act of defiance, watchtower informed the court that it would not comply with the march 25, 2016 order 39 requiring it to produce documents responsive to request number 12. the court, following lopez, supra, 246 cal.app.4th 566, as an incremental step toward terminating sanctions if watchtower persists in its unjustified conduct, imposed monetary sanctions.

  Per the courts orders: Only Zalkin and staff are allowed to view these documents.

  What would be ABSOLUTELY great is if one of Zalkin's staff had a photographic memory...

  Even tho they cannot 'discuss it' or 'reveal' information, they would be able to repeat the same process, obtain the files.

  Aaaaand, when getting new clients, if they could remember PERPETRATOR'S names, they would know their odds of winning.
