UPDATE: SOME REALLY TRAGIC NEWS!
Right at the beginning of this thread I mentioned an elder whom I evicted from my house. He and his wife live right on the corner of our street and have been shunning us.
A week ago a friend called round and happened to mention that there were 2-3 police cars and an ambulance outside the elder?s house. A neighbour said the local newspaper later printed a small report saying the elder?s wife had committed suicide by taking an overdose of pills. She was only in her late 40s.
We knew she had been suffering from depression ? her mother and sister were disfellowshipped years ago and the elder?s wife deliberately shunned them both. As far as I am concerned, this cult has claimed another victim.
A couple of days after the emergency services were in the street my doorbell rang. I answered the door to find Stephanie, my younger daughter, stood there. She mentioned about the elder?s wife being dead, to which I said I knew. What she said next was incredible: "I hope you?re satisfied!" she said.
Stephanie and the elder?s wife were good friends, so I guess I was the scapegoat for Stephanie?s pain. After that she walked off to her friend?s car (an elder?s wife who came between us months ago).
