Things that are not part of politics happening presently and how we approach or address it as Anabaptists.

I’d prefer, and think it more appropriate, that he, and the expected proceedings, have a separate thread.

Moving forward, I ask everyone that Mr. Gooch not be discussed on this thread, and I ask the Moderators to remove such posts.
There has already been lots of suspicion surrounding Plain people with the CAM issues... Now that it has been told on here that the killer has ties or a Plain upbringing and now you don't want any of his information posted - while I respect and agree with you - I hope you realize your post causes a lot more suspicions and more untrust towards Plain people...……….

Whatever. There is so much suspicious people on this forum that I don’t really take it all very seriously. I can only do so much. I was the one on the previous page that pointed out his Mennonite connection. That’s not it at all, never crossed my mind.
I have no problem with, and fully expect there to be discussion about him on this forum. I’m not trying to stop that. I think it is more respectful to not have it in this particular thread. As I said in the previous post. I’m not sure how much clearer I could have said it.

The way you posted is a typical Mennonite response that I have continually seen. I am not trying to talk about or pry into the Sasha Krashe subject - I am just trying to point out that this is a huge blind spot that Mennonites general have.

I am not saying this to be negative - I am trying to be helpful because what keeps happening is outsiders and seekers get pushed away from these types of interactions in real life all the time.

I think this keep quiet talk is so ingrained in the Mennonite culture I don't even expect for many or any of you to understand but if I do point it out - it might start to be something that Mennonites start to get?

It comes down to trust, people will respect your privacy without suspicion when things are said in a trustworthy manner - again I believe this is a blind spot that Mennonites are NOT doing intentionally or with the wrong heart.

With respect, I think you are missing his point. At least I took his request as reflecting on a respect for Sasha's memory, her family, and friends. He suggested a different thread, not that discussion of the accused be blocked on this site.
