Whoa...Monty Baker's lawyer questioned Derooroo as to why he didn't read the statements.
"Was it because they were made by people who were speaking out against the JWs?"
(sic)
Something like that.
Excellent question.

Smiddy's response reminded me where to find the transcripts of each days' testimony. Here is the link to both the live feed (when hearings are in session) AND for previous day's testimony (scroll down): http://www.childabuseroyalcommission.gov.au/case-study/636f01a5-50db-4b59-a35e-a24ae07fb0ad/case-study-29,-july-2015,-sydney
Thanks Smiddy!
Monty Bakers lawyer seems much shaper than BCGs.
These eldubs are shameless liars.

DeRooy responded: No. Not at all.

He is a big fat liar.
Sort of.
They (the active elders called upon to make testimony) didn't read ANYONE's statement so, technically, his response is honest.
However, recent WT directives dictate that no lover of Jehovah should listen, read or share reports from ANY person speaking negatively of the organization.
Monty does not seem to want to be here. And he admits that he has intentionally tried to distance himself from all things JW for the past 22 years.
He says that within his written statement that he could not recall names of many of people involved the cases in question. But upon reviewing the documents presented him from the commission, he, of course, remembered the people and the details have come back to him.
He left on principle due to disagreement with the WT. Ultimately disfellowshipped and JWs who were working for him had to find other employment.
Monty says that he personally was not uncomfortable about the 'shunning' but that it was more uncomfortable for the active JWs who felt they had to keep away from him as he was an apostate.
