Ousted Members Contend Jehovah's Witnesses' Abuse Policy Hides Offenses By
Laurie Goodstein "But when Mr. Bowen contacted the church's headquarters in
Brooklyn, he says, he was rebuffed. Frustrated by the church's inaction and
by its confidentiality provisions, which he said prevented him from sharing
the information with others, Mr. Bowen resigned as an elder in December 2000.
A year later, he started a group to monitor child sexual abuse in the church.
Late last month, Mr. Bowen, 44, was excommunicated from the church....found
him guilty of "causing divisions." The punishment was "disfellowshiping" —
complete shunning. In the past three months, four other people have been
expelled from the Jehovah's Witnesses after accusing it of covering up the
sexual abuse of children by its members. For Mr. Bowen and other critics of
church policies on sexual abuse, the expulsions are part of a concerted
effort to keep such abuses quiet."

CIA Scientist Frank Olson   - from All Things Considered, 8/7/02 "In 1953,
Frank Olson, a CIA scientist involved in biological and mind-control
experiments, died under mysterious circumstances. In 1975, Preisdent Ford
apologized to the Olson family and paid them $750,000 after admitting that
days before Olson's death, the CIA fed him LSD without his knowledge as a
part of an experiment. NPR Senior News Analyst Daniel Schorr says that White
House documents from 1975 suggest that the government settled the case to
prevent the disclosure of very sensitive information concerning Frank Olson's
work at the CIA."
