A friend of mine had a little different happening. I'll call her Andi. Well Andi was a Witness, single, and decided to go visit a bar she heard about in San Bernadino California. She lived in Riverside California.
Well that night she was dancing and someone slipped her something in her drink. The next day she found herself in some guy's house and slipped out and went home. Since she was a Witness and didn't want to report, the guy slipped her something, to the police, but she took off to see a Doctor in Orange, because she was worried about a disease and not wanting to be found out by the Elders on one slip up about going to a single's bar.
The office manager of the Doctor's office, a woman, and unknown to Andi, was a Witness. After filling out the form, including stating that Andi was a Witness, the office manager contacted Andi's congregation of Jehovah Witness's Elders.
A week later the Elders came to Andi about this. Andi was so angered, she threw out the Elders and contacted an attorney and filed against the Doctor, the office manager, and everyone else that was working at the Doctor's office.
The settlement was made out of court, due to the "Doctor-Patient Confidentiality Act." The office manager was fired and the Doctor filed against the former office manager to the medical board. Office manager was an RN.
So you see, no one is protected against the Governing Body. Later Andi left the organization of the Watchtower..She had enough.
Be careful whom you let know you're a witness when privacy comes into play.
