BUZZARD CONVICTED!

INDIANA v. JEFFREY CHARLES BUZZARD was a 2013-14 Indiana criminal court case. In 2009, Jeffrey C. Buzzard and his newly wedded wife (his second), Stacy Alane Buzzard, of Fort Wayne, Indiana, were the subjects of multiple articles published in the general media and medical journals which chronicled Jehovah's Witness Stacy Buzzard's much heralded "miraculous" recovery after a complicated surgery to remove a malignant brain tumor. Stacy Buzzard died in January 2012. Stacy Hendry Buzzard left behind a teenaged son and a teenaged daughter from a previous marriage.

FORMER ELDER PEDOPHILE INTERROGATES VICTIMS

In the following article it shows the horrendous policy of allowing untrained elders to investigate the crime of child rape. This remains the policy of the organization even though they know the detrimental effects of this type of interrogation. They proudly stated it on their website as you can see at this captured link , the results are often horrific and obstruct justice by providing the pedophile a way to terrorize the victim as well as learn the details of victim testimony to subvert a police investigation.

JW ELDER SENTENCED!

Silentlambs reported the capture of JW elder Micheal Norris a few months ago. After a long legal battle and an effort to protect the victim, the courts delivered the sentence below to the now convicted sex offender. In California it appears the passing of time and bad health are reasons to give pedophiles easy sentences and a slap on the wrist. The crime of destroying the life and innocence of a child is no matter to ignore or be taken lightly.

JW MURDERS JW FAMILY

Over the last several years Silentlambs has reported on the consistent issue of JW fathers murdering their children. In JW theology they are taught that life on this earth is corrupted by Satan.

Everyone and everything is tainted and thus something to be avoided. The only solution as directed by their theology is to escape to the “Paradise Earth” that God will provide after the end of the world in the immediate future.

SNAP PRESS RELEASE ABOUT JW ELDERS

An Oklahoma prosecutor is charging that top Jehovah’s Witness officials knew about but concealed allegations of child rape. We are glad that the DA’s office is working to expose these heinous crimes.

When officials conceal sex crimes, they are not only breaking the law, they are doing a huge disservice to the people and families that trust them. Victims who have suffered immeasurable pain and hardship are hurt anew when trusted officials hide crimes.

Another Accused JW Denies Twelve Counts Over 30 years!

Mark Anthony Sewell, 53, pleaded not guilty to a dozen charges – some dating back almost 30 years – at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court.

Wearing a light grey suit over a grey shirt and dark patterned tie with brown shoes and with his greying dark hair cut short, Jehovah’s Witness Sewell spoke quietly but clearly as he denied a single charge of rape against a woman as well as 11 counts of indecent assault.

OK DA CHARGES LOCAL ELDERS FOR NOT REPORTING ABUSE!

Oklahoma DA moves to file charges against four local elders for not reporting child abuse! Worldwide Work money is being spent to DEFEND the locally charged child molester. Motions by the accused' attorney have been filed to end the case due to the statue of limitations. In Oklahoma the statue of limitations on the crime of child abuse, starts from the moment of disclosure, this happens to be when the victims came forward in 2013. For those reasons prosecution is moving forward to porsecute the accused and it appears will also allow charges to be placed against the local elders for not reporting the crime to authorities. It seems being an elder will not be as much fun as it once was, as elders are put in jail for following Service Department instructions to not report crimes against children. **

Religion Newswriters Association Conference

Religion Newswriters Association recently held their annual conference in Austin TX. Silentlambs was invited to make a presentation on the abuse issue regarding other religions beyond the Catholic Church. Laurie Goodstein is the Religion News reporter for the New York Times also wrote one of the first major stories on Jehovah’s Witnesses and abuse. The article represented a major credibility for abuse survivors with proving there was a major problem of covering up abuse within the Watchtower organization. The story ran in August of 2002 shortly after Dateline and the BBC Panorama and right before the Silentlambs March that was part of the Fifth Estate Canada .

SILENTLAMBS ALERT! Brother Alabaladejo calling!

“I would like to see if it is possible to have a current member of Jehovah's witnesses who is also on the Texas registry for sex offenders, photo posted on this site. He is in my congregation and no one knows of his status, except maybe the elders. His name is Anthony Albaladejo, my concern is that he is very active in door to door ministry and from my own experience with him. His behavior is not what I would consider normal around women and teenage girls.”

He told her that she would have to learn to fight off men in later life and tested her to see if she was strong enough to fight off a rapist.

ZALKIN PRESS CONFERENCE FOR NEW LAWSUIT!

The Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses has staunchly stood against protecting children. See the recent evidence at this link, Jehovahs Witnesses Fight to Protect Pedophile Paradise . The point of the article was to show clear mandates of the GB that protects pedophiles while putting children in danger. The decisions made by this small group of men have hurt hundreds of thousands of children that are members of Jehovah’s Witnesses. It appears the only way to gain the attention of self serving haughty men is to make them pay in the form of litigation.

Bradford Crown Court heard yesterday Capazzo, 41, who was formerly known as Andrew Collins, had been a member of the Jehovah’s Witness faith.

CAMPOS CONFESSES JWS PAY MILLIONS TO SETTLE

Silentlambs worked on this case for two years to bring justice for the innocent. Notice the highlighted quotes in this article. The exact thing that caused me to resign as an elder, Jehovah's Witnesses still continue to practice. They do not call police unless required by law, Elders must seek the Service and Legal Department first with all allegations, and McCabe admits it is widely known there are sexual abuse problems within the organization. For thirteen years they have denied there is any problems with abuse now when they are sued for 'millions' they admit there is a problem. Perhaps money talks after all.

MS CAUGHT ELDERS REQUIRED TO TESTIFY ABOUT COVERUP!

Thirteen years after Silentlambs exposed the cover up of protecting child molesters within Jehovah’s Witnesses they continue to hurt children. The PR Department denies they protect pedophiles and have continued to do so, yet stories like this show them to be untruthful with their members and the public at large. When you donate to Jehovah’s Witnesses you give money to the “Worldwide Work Fund” you directly support the defense and cover up of pedophilia.
