My first thought was how dumb do they think Mennonites are.

My second thought was some fear because some of us are naive.

I posted a comment that I hope nobody is naive enough to submit information. It has a secretive, creepy feel about it. It "feels" like something a Mennonite would do.

Frequently in clinical medicine, a site like this pops up, asking for information, normally after a high profile situation. While I don’t know for sure, we suspect the ones we see are from lawyers mining for gold.

Liability lawyers are creeper than any Mennonite I know.

If there is the potential for money, you will see the lawyers circling.

What ever that site is, it must be fishy. The wifi at work won't let me access it. I tried with two devices. Gotta wait until I get home and try again.

Unknown/new websites with little content other than a file upload facility usually get filtered by corporate web filter/firewall security devices, and for good reason.

How many lawyers looking for victims would write stuff like this?

"Truth does not care about our feelings. We encourage you to pray for guidance in this issue."

"We need any and all pictures, videos, audio, documents, etc. that may identify, implicate, or absolve Jeriah Mast or potential cooperators including allegations for or against Christian Aid Ministries." (If this were a lawyer looking for victims the word absolve seems like an odd choice. Unless of course it were a lawyer looking to defend Jeriah, CAM or someone else who knew about the abuse for awhile).

"This small excerpt is a small part of a lengthy, rambling post followed by still more posts." (As I said in an earlier post this is in reference to Trudy Metzger's first blog post. Again this doesn't sound like a lawyer looking for victims).

I agree, it doesn't sound like a lawyer at all. It sounds like some individual trying to gather information for who knows what purpose....
