two fwds from L Moss Sharman Sex-abuse raps reinstated - Lawyer charged in Project Truth ordered to trial again By Bob Klager, Ottawa Sun "A Cornwall lawyer implicated in one of Canada's most notorious investigations into sexual abuse must stand trial again on charges he molested boys, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled yesterday. During a rarely granted oral hearing, the high court "dismissed from the bench" Jacques Leduc's application to appeal an Ontario court ruling last summer that overturned a third court's decision to stay the charges against him and award him nearly $300,000 in damages. Leduc, the former legal counsel for the Archdiocese of Alexandria-Cornwall, was charged in 1998 with eight counts of sexual exploitation involving three teenage boys after Project Truth, a massive OPP probe into sex allegations, named him and several prominent Cornwall-area individuals as suspects." ""Project Truth resulted in 114 charges against 15 high-profile men, including three Catholic priests, a doctor and a lawyer. Only one person, unconnected to the alleged sex ring, was ultimately convicted of sexual offences." http://www.canoe.ca/NewsStand/OttawaSun/News/2004/01/13/311801.html

Satanic Rituals Reported Within Mormonism by Church Leader "on October 25, 1991, just in time to spoil Halloween, a secret, internal report from the Presiding Bishopric of the LDS Church surfaced. It alleged that satanic ritual child abuse (known as SRA) was being perpetrated by both members and leaders of the Mormon Church in Utah, Idaho, California, Mexico and elsewhere....According to the Salt Lake Tribune, the report, by Bishop Glenn L. Pace, states that such abuse was being done by officers of the church. Even temple workers and Tabernacle choir members stand implicated of SRA in church meetinghouses and perhaps even in the temples. At least 45 of the victims claim they were forced to observe or participate in human sacrifice. In the report, Pace testifies that "I have met with sixty victims. That number could be twice or three times as many if I did not discipline myself to only one meeting per week â I don't pretend to know how prevalent the problem isâAssuming each [victim] comes from a coven of 13, we are talking about the involvement of 800 or so right here in the Wasatch Front. Obviously, I have seen only those coming forth to get help."

Priest left US after admission in sex case By Stephen Kurkjian and John Ellement, 1/14/04 "A year after the Archdiocese of Boston adopted a new policy on handling allegations of clergy sexual abuse in the 1990s, an Australian priest who had admitted having sex with a teenager abruptly left the archdiocese and the country, short-circuiting a potential investigation by police and child welfare authorities, according to documents filed yesterday in Suffolk Superior Court. Documents from the archdiocese's own files show that the Rev. Barry Robinson returned to Australia in April 1994 without being questioned by civil authorities even though Robinson had acknowledged to his therapist in March that he had had sexual relations with a teenage boy on three occasions in the rectory of Blessed Sacrament Church in Jamaica Plain. Although he believed that Robinson's therapist had notified the state of the sexual relationship, the Rev. John B. McCormack, then the archdiocese's principal officer dealing with clergy sexual-abuse allegations, made no attempt to stop Robinson from making a quick departure from Boston, according to the Rev. Christopher J. Coyne, spokesman for the Boston Archdiocese." http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2004/01/14/priest_left_us_after_admission_in_sex_case/

In-House Audit Says Wal-Mart Violated Labor Laws
By STEVEN GREENHOUSE
Published: January 13, 2004 An internal audit now under court seal warned top executives at Wal-Mart Stores three years ago that employee records at 128 stores pointed to extensive violations of child-labor laws and state regulations requiring time for breaks and meals.
The audit of one week's time-clock records for roughly 25,000 employees found 1,371 instances in which minors apparently worked too late at night, worked during school hours or worked too many hours in a day. It also found 60,767 apparent instances of workers not taking breaks, and 15,705 apparent instances of employees working through meal times. www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
