Looking forward to John Redwood's coverage of this who was in the courtroom. Anticipating a lot of interesting details.

I'm so sorry for the second woman who wasn't awarded anything. What a blow to her that must of been. Now we wait for Watchtower's appeal.

You know, this GB, the Bethel reps and their legal team are just so smug in their attitudes about the abuse issues. If they make me sick with their pompous attitudes and how they always try to pin the abuse on the victim, can imagine how any jury/judge/observer would feel!

and how they always try to pin the abuse on the victim
Or how they intimidate and guilt victims when they come forward with the situation to local law authorities.

Ironic as it is the WTS withholding situations of pedophilia within their organization as an intent to protect the image of their organization has irrevocably back fired in the opposite direction.
Should have been taken the responsible steps in the first place and that would garnered respect from the general population.
........that goes for the Catholics as well.
These two religious organizations knew that pedophilia was a serious crime in most countries.
