So, 3-D what do you do with the two men who are brothers who have been abused by TS as young men? Seems that there is a letter where TS admits it happened. So he has never been convicted by a court of law, that doesn't mean that he is not guilty. OJ is as guilty as you can get and he went through a trial and got off.
OJ is a strawman and has nothing to do with TS or 3abn.
First of all Grat, TS was a Pastor of the Church of God and married, he was dead wrong having a relationship with a church member. He has repented of that sin, he has been in counselling for it, and he is no longer a pastor. He apologized to Duane, took all the blame on himself, and tried to make it up to Duane Clem, and encourage him too to get help also, but there is a letter which Duane Clem sent him saying that he had never hurt him and there was nothing to forgive. To this day Duane Clem denies he needs any help. It was Duane Clem who tried to initiate contact with TS again and it was TS who told him they could never be alone together again because of the past, but said that he and his wife would meet together with Duane and talk to him and try to help in whatever way they could. Duane did not want that.
Second of all, Duane Clem was an adult who entered into a wrong relationship and met TS and drove himself to those meetings on his own. He in his letter to Bob Pickle claims it was TS who broke off the relationship saying it was wrong. He also says TS accused him repeatedly of "faking it" and that once TS realized he didn't want the relationship he stopped. This to me suggest that the adult Duane Clem did not ever say "NO", or tell TS that he did not want anything to happen between them, and if he had it never would have occurred. So it is debatable wither the relationship was an abusive or consentual one. Duane Clem is a very large man, in heighth and weight, and TS is a very small man who is dwarfed by the man he is accused of molesting. For those who have seen and met both and know the characters of each the whole rape molestation story is utterly unbelievable.
In any case it was not a case of Pedophilia and that is the accusation which has been made against TS and what 3abn and DS have been accused of covering up over and over again.
The other brother has problems, and I don't mean that unkindly, yes he made angry accusations , but what are they specifically? Do you know? I don't. TS has never admitted to doing anything with him in the letter you refer to or otherwise, and even his own brother Duane in reply to Bob Pickle's questions about that said he could not comment as he would get in trouble with both sides no matter what he said.
Now ask yourself this Grat. If Duane said that yes his brother told the truth, certainly that would cause TS to be upset, but as he was already accusing TS it is all the same, and why would that get him in trouble with his brother? If he said no it wasn't true, obviously that would cause a problem with his brother. And why has his brother never filed a complaint as he threatened to. He said he could due to his current age and having checked into recent changes in the law. That brother has never even written out what he is claiming even occurred so there is nothing to check, investigate, confirm or deny.
Without charges, or facts to back anything up, and with no investigation nor trial, how can you accept what he claims and believe TS is guity?
The truth is their mother was among the most staunch defenders of TS. And the fact is not even the Church of God that he pastored in Virginia has any statements from any alleged victims to go on. Only claims by Pastor Dryden that they have decided can not be accepted as anything but hearsay without those statements.
I really am sick of the witch hunt here. If any accusing TS really wanted to see justice done, they would see to it that papers and statements were filed. Even if the statute of limitations has run out, the counties involved would still have a record to use in case it ever came up again. But nothing has been reported nor filed, yet there are so many yelling guilty and accusing others of covering up sexual crimes and defending a pedophile.
That's all I have to say about this matter Grat.
