Jehovah's Witnesses Hold Sex Abuse Caucus - Jehovah's Witnesses Who Claim to Have Been Sexually Abused Hold Their First National Caucus AP Nashville, Tenn. 3/27/04 "Present and former Jehovah's Witnesses who claim they were sexually abused by congregation leaders gathered in their first national caucus Saturday, sharing grievances about the religion's handling of abuse complaints and discussing legal strategy. William Bowen, former leader of a Kentucky congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, said Saturday that more than 6,000 alleged sexual abuse victims have contacted a group he founded in 2001 to express "outrage at being silenced by the bad institutional policies" of the faith....Bowen's group, called silentlambs, was holding the caucus, which runs through Sunday and drew about two dozen participants. A key participant was Kimberlee Norris, an attorney from Fort Worth, Texas, whose firm represents 47 alleged abuse victims in civil cases against Jehovah's Witnesses organizations and individuals. Since getting involved in 2002, she said, she has spoken with more than 2,000 victims." http://abcnews.go.com/wire/US/ap20040327_625.html www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
