WELS Watergate? Waterloo?
Or Another Tabor, Just, Werner, Zerbe Cover-Up?

It sort of makes one wonder if this will become the Watergate of the WELS. It was not the break-in that was the big crime in the Watergate Scandal. It was the cover-up which followed that was the bigger crime. In a play of words, maybe this will become the Waterloo of the WELS, but I doubt it.

GJ - The financial cost will be great. Shortly after some of the scandals, the insurance companies insisted on clearing employees of sexual crime records before they would cover the congregations in abuse cases. I heard that DP Robert Mueller, who considered himself above the law and immune to the Ten Commandments, was resentful about the burden imposed on him.

Why should an insurance company charge a low premium in good faith when the District President, in bad faith, moves around a sex offender? The sex offenders often re-offend, as Hochmuth did, and UOJ makes matters worse.
