In 1965 a boy was molested by a ministerial servant in a congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses en route to an assembly, where the molester was due to give a talk at the convention.

Revulsed, the boy was nevertheless forced to be around this molester in the years ahead in agonizing cruel ways.

When the matter came up before the Service Dept. of the Watchtower in Brooklyn, and the elders in the local congregation, no reply was given, no apologies, no offer for counseling an abuse victim, just the warning that you “could be disfellowshipped for gossip.”

See his compelling testimony in the following 20 minute video.That in spite of the fact that the molester not only acknowledged his dirty deed to the young man later on, but that the other elders and Brooklyn had “taken care of the matter.” The molester moved on to be a Special Pioneer and elder in the boy’s congregation. He remains an elder in Jehovah’s Spiritual Paradise to this day. No offers for help were ever given to the young man, who will remain anonymous as he is still technically a Jehovah’s Witness.

The following video is a shocking reminder that in spite of the Watchtower’s Public Relations Dept. and their statements on their website, the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society is still VERY MUCH INTERESTED in keeping molesters a secret in the congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses, even using such ones in responsible positions! Will such a one be coming by your door soon? In his letter to Brooklyn dated March 2005 the victim, who chooses to remain anonymous because he is still a Witness, writes the Governing Body these questions in the light of their refusal to address his previous letters to Service Dept. Rep. Lon Schilling:

1. Why was I never contacted by the Service Dept. or a Judicial committee as a sexual assault victim?

2. Why was I not offered psychological and emotional help as a victim of sexual assault?

3. Why did you not keep him away from me?

4. Why was this action committed in Jehovah’s Visible Organization?

5. Why did the Governing Body torment me by having such an unhealthy and inhumane child abuse policy?

6. You paid him to be in my face while I was still a minor; you paid him as a special pioneer and appointed him to be my elder in Mountain City, TN. Why? Were you not psychologically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually beating me up in the JW Spiritual Paradise by appointing him as the Presiding Overseer of my congregation?
