  Yes. 'Duty to warn' verdict by lower court was overturned. Lack of child supervision during 'field service' verdict by lower court was upheld by the appellate court as a ruling against the WT. Duty to warn has nothing to do with custody. A child alone in field service is in temporary custody of another adult. In Conti's case, the adult was Kendrick. Yes, I read the court's transcript, thank-you.

  Again.
  Violating confidentiality breaks church law and subjects the violator to church discipline, It is against church law.

  Fisherman, it's YOUR church law. Not mine. Your church's disciplinary actions. Not those of my church.

  Church discipline?? You mean Kingdom Hall style discipline, as in what Jonathan Kendrick received? Hahahaha. What DISCIPLINE did he receive? A slap on the wrist, followed by full reinstatement as an elder IN GOOD STANDING! How absurd. That bastard should be in jail.

  If some sick S.O.B. were to molest my child, he needn't worry about congregational 'discipline.' He'd incur the wrath of MY justice, and MY law, well in advance. Remember the movie "Scarface" with Al Pacino??

  Cappytan, It looks as though Fisherman finally answered your question. He maintains that church-confidentiality is indeed more important than child welfare. Note how he bases his premise on 'church law,' not Federal Law.

  Fisherman. This goes way beyond mere 'imperfection,' or 'screwing up,' as you put it.

  Suppose your kid's school administrator hires a gym teacher, knowing FULL-WELL that this individual has a criminal conviction for kiddy-porn. Suppose that same gym teacher sexually molests YOUR child in the locker room when no one was around.

  I guess you'd just shrug your shoulders and say, "well, the administration just 'screwed' up. They're 'imperfect.'" Right? Is that what you'd do? If so, then you disgust me.

  And as for not trusting others with the 'little ones,' are you telling me that you attend school with your kids?

  Hmm. So, the WT presumably blew right through that 10 day window.

  It sounds as if the 'SS Watchtower' has a (legal) crack in her hull, and is about to get torpedoed with more lawsuits? These recent money grabs sound analagous to bailing water from a sinking ship.

  These other lawsuits must be hush-hush. Perhaps they're under gag orders in some states? It just seems awfully quiet out there since the Conti appeal case, and the Lopez case before that.

  Ok...so WHEN will the Watchtower make their decision to:

  a) Take it to the Federal level (Sup. Court).

  b) or, take what they've got & try to deal with it?

  There MUST be a deadline for them to 'fish or cut bait.' X number of days since the California appellate court's decision?

  Watchtower's deadline to appeal

  by Boeing Stratofortress in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  the conti verdict was made in mid-april.

  presumably, the wt&ts has until a certain date to decide whether to take the case to supreme court or not.

  does anyone know how long this period is from the date of the court's decision?

  The Conti verdict was made in mid-April. Presumably, the WT&TS has until a certain date to decide whether to take the case to Supreme Court or not. Does anyone know how long this period is from the date of the court's decision? I'm thinking 30, 60, or 90 calender days.

  Does anyone know for sure? I'm betting that regardless of the deadline, the WT will wait until the last minute of the last day to make any such move.

  How many child abuse cases?

  by LHS123 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  does anyone know where i can find numbers of how many child abuse cases have been brought against jws or settled out of court?.

  i know that 1 is too many and statistics don't reflect the horror suffered, but i would like some numbers to use when explaining to others the reasons for my decreased activity and to have support for my reasons for 'stumbling', facts which might make others think too.. im from uk so it helps that the charities commission is investigating there and also there's a paedophiles exposed website which names 32 jws convicted in uk since 2012, horrifying!

  I'd like to add something. It's been just over a month since the Conti verdict at the Calif Court of Appeals, which found the WT&TS negligent in not protecting minors during door-to-door 'publishing.'

  Question: how long does the WT have to decide whether to accept the verdict vs take it to the Federal Level, i.e. Supreme Court?? It seems to me, that their decision at this legal 'fork in the road,' will have a big impact on how the pending lawsuits progress. If the WT decides NOT to fight, then it seems they are inviting more lawsuits, with the California precedent having been set.
