Sorry to share this here, but I really believe that unless this sort of thing gets the maximum publicity then things will never change.

I have nothing against the JW's personally my parents are JW's. But my sister was abused by one and when she reported it, the Jehovah's Witness elders required two witnesses (like a pedophile would have a witness to an attack) and never reported it to the police. I understand that the person in question had done it before.
No one should be above the law, especially when it concerns child protection. The Jehovah's Witnesses are told never to read these sorts of articles as it is an attempt to sway their faith. But unless they admit they have a problem they will never change and the abuse will continue.
The Judge summed it up very well in this case. Good on those girls who came forward.
