Thanks for posting this. Some years have passed since this court case and the supporting letters were written. I would be interested in knowing what the sentence was, when he was released from prison AND whether or not his subsequent behaviour is/was commensurate with the expressions of good character contained in the letters. Please excuse my ignorance, but I have no previous knowledge of the named character in question, David Johnson.

Wow and these people are trying to get him released early! I don't think I will ever understand that mindset and that's probably a good thing.

It's a very good thing - that's why you're 'good people', as they say.

I don't understand the thinking of the letter writers. Did any one of them consider the victim and the victim's family? The victims "sentence" is for life!

Some of them didn't really mention anything that the judge would really consider relevant to the decision he would need to make.

If the convicted perpetrator is now released from prison, is he attending Sunday meeting and conventions?

Hopefully he won't return to meeting attendance, whether "repented" or not! (for good of himself and to safeguard against future victims)

Hopefully he won't return to meeting attendance, whether "repented" or not! (for good of himself and to safeguard against future victims) The reason I was asking my questions in my previous post was that if he had been out of prison for some years and had been of good character during the period after his release, one could understand attempts to rehabilitate him into the fellowship in some way, but not through involving exposure to young children or other vulnerable persons. Although by virtue of serving his prison sentence, Johnson would normally be regarded as having 'tholed his assize' for his past demeanours, this should not entitle him to the freedom of movement amongst the fellowship, especially on account of the seriousness of the crimes he has been convicted of. He could have his own visitation/fellowship from workers if the latter were comfortable with this? Obviously he did not meet the criteria for early release for whatever reason. The fellowship is entitled to employ its own risk management principles, which should not be compromised by concerns over the salvation of his soul, which I'm sure God would not make dependent upon his return to meetings. The man is a convicted criminal of some magnitude and like sin, we may be forgiven, but often we still have to bear the consequences throughout our life. The character reference letters appear to have been an attempt to influence the judge to give a more lenient sentence, which thankfully seems to have had little effect. Whilst every case should be judged on its own merits, the application of strong safety measures as a prevention hurdle must be in place before any spiritual considerations are given thought to. Where a risk factor to vulnerable persons is present, mercy should not equate to leniency.
