More sexual abuse evidence emerges against Sathya Sai Baba
2008-04-17 15:30:00 Muz Murray is a world renowned mystic and mantra yoga master of 40 years’ experience. Although endowed with the saffron robe and spiritual name of “Ramana Baba” in India, he sees himself neither as a ‘Swami’ nor a ‘New Age’ teacher, inclining rather to the notion of a ‘No Age’ seeking the teachings suitable for any age of the world. Muz Murray signed the Public Sai Petition, stating that he had been warned by Swami Muktananda of Ganeshpuri over thirty years ago never to get into a private darshan with Sai Baba, since he had just returned from Puttaparthi adjudicating in a court case regarding Sai Baba’s molestation of the son of two of Muktananda’s disciples. Also an Arab friend of Muz Murray was penetrated by Sai Baba many years later, he states. This kind of information has been flowing in - mostly since 1999 when the Internet made it possible for victims, otherwise isolated, to confer and stand forth with their testimonies. Muz Murray further criticises Sath...

Increasing trend of Sexual abuse of school going girls in India
2008-02-27 16:21:00 Sometimes, it looks very hard to believe the stories flashed on the various TV channels about the sexual abuse of girls in schools. In recent few years, the numbers of such incidences have increased many times creating a doubt over the present education system in India. Most of the cases, these school going girls become the victim of their own teachers and school staffs, whom their parents trust most. Some of these teachers always remain in the search of innocent and poor girls whom they can easily exploit on the name of education and exam marks. On the other hand, these girls do not know how to save themselves from these teachers because schools are believed as one of most secure places in world for students. According to one of the today?s news, a principle in the Delhi based school was sexually abusing girls of fourth and fifth standard. This news clearly indicates the seriousness of this situation and how millions of school going girls are not safe in schools across India. In ju...
Lawyer Defends Victims of Sexual Abuse
2008-02-20 08:27:00 A few months ago, the Portland Archdiocese tried forcing victims of clergy sex abuse to disclose their full names in filings with the court. In its ongoing effort to punish those who dare speak out about their horrific childhood ordeals, the Archdiocese and its lawyers sought to make reconciliation as publicly painful as possible. Now, in a cruel reversal of its own logic, the Archdiocese is seeking to keep secret both the names of its abusive priests and its own efforts to protect them, thus perpetuating the crimes against generations of Catholic children.I represented a sex abuse victim in his claim against the Archdiocese, so I witnessed firsthand how the Archdiocese has conducted itself. I sat with my client through a grueling deposition where he was essentially accused of being a liar, of encouraging the abuse, and even of secretly enjoying the molestation while it occurred.The pain he endured in pursuing his claim was made worse by the fact that the priest who molested him acc...

Teacher Beth Ann Chester Charged with Sexual Abuse
2008-01-07 19:52:00 Pennsylvania high school teacher Beth Ann Chester is being charged with sexual abuse of a child after she sent nude photos of herself and suggestive text messages to one of her 14-year-old students. Beth Ann Chester, a 26-year-old health and physical education teacher at Moon Area High School in suburban Pittsburgh, was charged with sexual abuse of children, statutory sexual assault and related counts. On Dec. 22, Chester sent three pictures of herself, two of them naked, to the boy’s cell phone, police said. The student replied with a naked picture of himself, authorities said. This story reminds me of Debra Lafave’s arrest and conviction for sleeping with one of her students.

Catholic Church fights sexual abuse with coloring books
2007-12-05 22:39:00 The Catholic Church is really onto something with its latest tactic in fighting the much publicized sexual abuse that has plagued the Church recently. They've decided to give the kids coloring books! Wow! How innovative! How revolutionary! How life-changing! The coloring books are being handed out to good little Catholic boys and girls in schools and at churches in the New York Diocese. The books warn children to avoid being alone with strangers, beware of online predators and that there are certain parts of their body that are no-no zones. Gee, we covered most of that in kindergarten with our "Beware of Strangers" campaign. One criticism I have, and is apparently shared by others, is the vagueness with which they address the entire priest sex abuse issue. Rather than state outright that if a priest touches you, he's not a good priest and you need to tell somebody, the book sidesteps the whole priest scandal. That's a pretty ludicrous move, considering the scandal is...

The author, Annabel Prescott, told an addictions conference in Auckland yesterday that sexual abuse was the only key "risk factor" that showed up in a statistical analysis of all factors associated with heavy cannabis use in the Youth 2000 survey of 9570 students at 114 New Zealand high schools. 5:00AM Tuesday November 06, 2007By Simon Collins NZHerald The analysis found that heavy cannabis users were also more likely to be violent, get involved in fights, ride in cars being driven dangerously, have unprotected sex, be clinically depressed and attempt suicide. ...

Sexual abuse by nuns
2007-10-05 08:19:00 Nuns have not been part of the investigation into the Catholic sex abuse scandal because the "women religious" do not always fall under the authority of their local bishop (although they may well fall under his cassock...). There are, however, many documented cases of nuns committing child sex abuse. Among six new lawsuits in Portland, Oregon, two are directed against nuns, and the holy old bats are nor happy about this. Lawyer Kelly Clark explains: "I have more resistance these days from religious orders involving nuns, more denial, than I have from any archdiocese or any religious order involving priests." He says that nuns are 10 to 15 years behind the rest of the church in their attitude to dealing with accusations of abuse. One campaigner who agrees is Steve Theisen. He was abused over a three-year period by a nun who was a teacher at his school. Was she hot? Mr Theisen now runs a network for those who have been abused by Catholic leaders. His research has uncovered more tha...

Is Healing Possible For Childhood Sexual Abuse Victims ?
2006-12-02 16:10:08 Is Healing Possible For Childhood Sexual Abuse Victims ?By Forrest W. SchultzA review of Mary E. DeMuth, Wishing On Dandelions (Colorado Springs: NavPress, 2006) ISBN 1-57683-953-2 $12.99 339 pages The sexual abuse of children is one of the most heinous, most widespread, most embarrassing, and most devastating of all sins being perpetrated in modern times. Mary DeMuth is to be commended for her efforts to deal realistically with this horrific subject in her finely crafted Maranatha novels. Her first novel, Watching The Tree Limbs, tells the story of the abuse suffered by Maranatha when she was nine years old. Although the rapist was caught and punished and the abuse has ended, the emotional scars remain to plague her. The story in the second Maranatha novel, the one under review here, takes place when Natha is 17 years old and in desperate need of healing from these four scars: continual reliving of the horrible events in her memory,...
