The sex abuse trial of twice convicted Oblate priest Father�Eric Dejager�continues today in Iqaluit in Nunavut.� Unfortunately this Canadian horror story is now receiving little media coverage.� Hopefully there will be coverage of yesterdays� testimony.� There was nothing from Monday.
Today I will blog the testimony from Wednesday past when I had the good fortune to be in the Iqaluit courtroom to see and hear with my own eyes and ears.� Some of those children were such brave little souls, doing what they could as a children to protect other children from �Eric.�
Please keep the victims/complainants� in your thoughts and prayers.� This trial is very difficult for them.

For those in the Pembroke Ontario area, a belated posting yesterday of the following articles on the nine-month-plus-ten-day sentencing of Father�Dan Miller:
05 December 2013:��Former priest jailed for nine months�
04 December 2013:���Justice? (Eganville Leader editorial)
�
04 December 2013:���Father Daniel Miller victims feel betrayed by church hierarchy
04 December 2013:���Priest gets nine months plus in jail for molesting boys
Good coverage!
As most of you know Father Miller is now facing new charges.� His next courtdate on those charges is�16 January 2014.
I� encourage all those who have sex abuse allegations against Father Daniel Miller to find the courage to contact the police.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all,� those whose allegations evoked a �guilty� plea, those whose allegations were dropped, those who came forward recently, and those who may be struggling to come forward.

Check�NEW to the Site�(NEW).� There has been a lot happening around the world in the past week.� I was unable to keep on top of events while in the North� so committed yesterday to doing a bit of a catch up.� There are still articles to post but it�s a start�
*****
No news on the outcome of the Father�Jacques Faucher�courtdate in Ottawa yesterday.� Hopefully I can get the next courtdate today. As soon as I get the info I will post and make comment on the Father Jacxques Faucher page.
Enough for now,
Sylvia
