Thank you for your as-always insightful reply. I like your comparison to a blog -- that's really what it is. When seen as a blog, then the implied standards for accuracy and accountability are much milder.
Maresha's story, as I recall is as follows: She grew up in TF -- father a well-known musician. Did not have much of a life, shuttled around and sexually abused by different people.
She testified in the court case in England. Many ex-members testified there -- but it was all private -- no publicity. The press could not report names. All identities were protected.
So as I see it, to out her in this fashion by describing everything and then givibg her legal name is highly irresponsible. Anyone who knows how to do a googlesearch could easily find this stuff, and it could be devastating for her. The odds are, she does not want to be part of Sam's crusade, yet there she is.
That's my take on this situation, and why I am upset that Sam publishes this. Because Sam has a stated policy of no expectation of privacy as concerns emails, people like me are forced to confront him publicly with our concerns.
I hope that some of us can raise awareness with these charitable umbrella groups about the FCF-Family connection.
A question for you that I think I know the answer to: Is there any way to contact you via email -- privately?
