LANDMARK DECISION - Vicki Boer vs Watchtower Society
by Uzzah inas most are aware, vicki boer has been long awaiting a decision to be handed down in a case she started against the society in canada.. the decision was handed down today.
as with any 55 page decision, it will take some time for the legal experts to hash it over and decipher what was said.
but, in a nutshell..... vicki won.

Rough night, but its a new day. Thanks Diana for all the encouragement, and sorrry I havent had a chance to call. I wish you could have been there to testify. I had no idea if you were even alive. I don't think new evidience can be added. What really makes me upset is that she found the wt society guilty of the first meeting, but not the second. It just doesn't make sense. I feel like a rape victum who insists that these three men raped me, and the judge believes them because its 3 against one. Why the hell would I have started this lawsuit if I couldn't remember whether or not they made me sit and confront my father. Its nuts that she didn't believe me that it did indeed happen. She says I was emotionally distraught to remember, so I lied. I NEVER LIED. I REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED. I REMEMBER HAVING TO SIT AT THE TABLE WITH MY FATHER AND GOING OVER DETAILS OF THE ABUSE OVER AND OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I REMEMBER THEM SAYING THAT MY FATHER DENIES DETAILS OF THE ABUSE AND SO HE HAD TO BE BELIEVED OVER ME. THEY EVEN WROTE IN THEIR JUDICIAL COMMETTEE MEETING LETTER THAT I EXAGERATED.
FIRST MY FATHER RAPES ME, THEN THE SOCIETY RAPES ME, AND NOW THE JUDGE BELIEVES THEM,AND REVICTIMIZES ME. WHEN WILL THEY STOP LYING!

yes, it does seem like alot. I just finished reading the judges decision a few minutes ago. Iam not feeling very good about it now. She completely believes the elders when they said they would never make a person apply matt 18 for a child abuse case,(they did), she believed them when they said there was never a face to face confrontation at the judical commettee with me and my father (there definitly was!!!!!), and she said I was obviously too distressed at the time to remember. Iam hoping to get a copy of the decision and post it tonight. So stay tuned........I will send it asap. I also heard from a news report that the elders have sent out a news release saying they have been vindicated from the charges, and that the judge had made an errror on a point of law, and that their lawyers would be dealing with it shortly. Does this mean appeal? The 2 elders may have gotten away with it, but the wt society was charged with negligence. This makes me want to fight the battle to the end.(my husband is worried). Too many children have been put through these judicial meetings for them to get off this easy!!!! THis battle is not over until this fat lady sings!!!!!!!!! Help.......I need everyones help on this. Its a battle we have to fight together. Anyone know any ex-jw millionairs that have some extra cash to help the cause!
If we win this one, it will lead the way for others who are fighting. Not sure if my hubby can keep fighting.

Hello,
Vicki here from Fredericton,
We are very happy about the victory. Believe me press articles are coming..........today in fact I had 4 reports call to do stories. I will definitly post them as they come. Hawk......where are you when I need you?! The only thing finiancially that my husband and I are concerned with is the 100,000 legal debt. Not sure if it will put us into bankruptcy if we end up paying. My lawyer still hasnt gotten back to us to let us know if the other side pays. Keep the posts coming, they keep me uplifted. I will try to get the verdict, I still do not have it, and have not seen it yet.

Iam still in shock. I don't know whether to celebrate or not. $5000.00 was such a small amount to cover the terrible past pain and present pain. One flight ticket to toronto cost that much, and I made at least 10. So Iam still not sure how much of a win this is. I know that money is not everything, but it definitly is something. I have 3 small girls who have suffered for 5 years of lawsuits, sometimes going without, knowing that when the judgement came down we would be able to pay off the legal debt, and live again. I feel like I have let my family down. iam the one who should have payed for their mistake, not them. But again, this is just how I feel today. Iam glad to hear how much of a difference this decision will make to fighting them in the future. We did win. I still have not seen the decision, and my lawyer still has not read it, I have only gotton this information from a 3rd party who was able to get it faxed. I will find out in the next few days whether or not the society pays all the legal bills. It would really be bad if we won the small amount and still had to pay legal.
I hope the does help other people. 5th estate will be following up with another story, and now that the decision has been made, we can say anything. Lets hope the jerks don't appeal. THey should be happy they got off so light. The thing that makes me most mad was when they lied on the stand the judge believed them. They said they would not have applied Matt 18 to an abuse case,(even though they did), and they never do. They lied, and the judge believed. Anyway.......I will let all know what happens when my lawyer finally gets a chance to read the bloody thing.
