For decades, allegations of sexual abuse by a former Jehovah’s Witness leader in Kenai — reportedly known to church elders since the 1990s — were never brought to police. Now, with 20 felony charges filed, survivors call it a long-overdue reckoning. (via Anchorage Daily News)
Decades of silence preceded a painful reckoning for a Jehovah’s Witnesses congregation on the Kenai Peninsula
State prosecutors say Aaron Scott Merritt sexually abused at least four girls in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Some of the victims say the abuse was well known by congregation leaders for years.

Does the 6th Amend literally require a defendant to “see” the accuser or witness in order to “face” them? Or simply be able to know the ID, to confront & cross examine the witness about the evidence testified to? Espec in cases with unequal levels of legal maturity? How about a blind defendant?

Battiloro was only weeks shy of 18 when the girls were murdered, but authorities failed to charge him as an adult.. After previously failing to protect one of them from his stalking/harassment.
Did they fail to comprehend what he was capable of? Maybe their options were limited due to minor status
