What do we do with the coming fallout?

Posted by Observer on April 10, 2005 at 23:40:59

When whole families will be leaving The Family, as Achieck said below. I think this is very real & whether we join the LaMatteries or testify to the FBI or whatever we do or don't do right now, I believe that this FBI investigation is going to be taken very seriously & that once it makes news in the States, other nations will take notice & it will affect the way they look at The Family as well, & affect their court cases, the media & police investigations in their lands.

Remember the British court case, when it looked like Pearl's child would be taken away & the adverse publicity was across Europe? At one point The Family sent a team to 'Help the Poor' but the people chased The Family members away in disgust. The Family almost considered evacuating Europe at the time.

Whether you like Jim LaMattery or not, expect to see the FBI Investigation succeed & for The Family to not only be in disarray, but to be brought to justice & probably to cease to exist as an organization. What will we do with the fallout, both SGs & FGs? There's the Safe Passage Foundation and Will to Life & hopefully they'll be up & running & tax-exempt status in time.

I think we need to think ahead.
