Former member of church claims two-witness rule kept abuse hidden
A small group of protesters spoke out against alleged abuse within the Jehovah’s Witnesses at one of the religious group’s annual conventions in Vancouver on Sunday.
Natasha Peeters was among them. Now 50, she says she was abused by an elder within the church when she lived in Belgium as a youth.
“I was abused… since I was a baby until 13 years old,” she said.
