In response to the cries and suffering of victims of Sexual Abuse here are two more creeps that need to be handled. As you are aware Ray – John B is in Texas. It is well known in the midwest and probably the south west young women were not safe alone with John B. One victim personally told me here own horror story. This hits me extra hard as I thought the world of Johns father and brother Lee & John had part in my Fathers funeral. But justice must be done no matter who they are. Barry I should not have to tell you the Jim story. After being a mess in the abuse area for many years in South America and the Islands — he was finally sent back to the US. Several years later many Friend are still trying to speculate why that happened. The fact that people have not been warned about his problem is unconscionable! We are very aware of who he has been reporting to during those years. For these situations not being handled properly especially in recent years is beyond the pale. A few blind bats are still questioning why we are seeking justice in these cases. Well they need to ask how they would feel if their mother, father, wife, sister, daughter, brother or grandchildren had or is being sexually abused –How would they feel about that. If they would feel any different than us in this cause then they are a disgrace to the human race let alone the Truth.
