    Jehovah’s Witnesses, who rejoice in the deaths of children. The whole thing is utterly bizarre.

      Worked with one a while back. She was trying to get out. Her whole family abandoned her. She finally went back and agreed to the arranged marriage temple leadership was demanding. Was immediately pregnant after the wedding. Forced to quit her job to be a stay at home mom.

      Firmly believe such behavior should be in our modern concept of slavery.

        This shit should be documented for court and the temple leadership can lead the jailhouse from inside from then on.
