PD, I am happy that somebody is doing something to find this criminal. I hope he is found and get the whole weight of the law and a few others.
But I have problems with one of your statements because it helps present the idea of a sanitized Family cult when that is not the truth.
"If any Family people are reading this, this is a
straightforward request for your help in uncovering the truth about what a man did to the children in his care. These children were supposed to be protected, they weren't."
This statement gives the impression that children were supposed to be protected by default. That is the norm in most cultures and with most sane people and for that reason most people who don't know TFI will take it to mean just that.
The problem I have is that in TFI, children are not safe by default. They are not safe and are not protected in general. What happened with the criminal you have described took place because of the unsafe environment in TFI. You lend support to this assertion by saying that he "Was at some point demoted to babe's status due to his
sexual behavior with minors, though exactly what he was caught and punished for is not clear."
While you include a disclaimer, you are obviously reaffirming that in your mind you suspect that to be the case. Why would you suspect such a thing if you were totally sure that TFI is a safe environment for children?
Anyway, I hope that criminal gets caught.
