4:00 – Jury Acquits the Four Christian Evangelists Arrested For Proselytizing at the Dearborn Arab Festival
Last Friday a jury of six Dearborn, Michigan residents returned a unanimous verdict of not guilty of breach of the peace charges against four Christians for proselytizing to Muslim youths during the Arab International Festival on June 18, 2010. The Thomas More Law Center represented the evangelists. The jury returned its verdict after just an hour and half of deliberations. Nageen Mayel was found guilty of failing to obey a police officer—a charge unrelated to the actual incident, which will most likely be reversed on appeal. Even after the acquittals, Dearborn’s mayor, Jack O’Reilly, continued his ongoing and unprecedented personal attacks on the Christian evangelists, accusing them of being anti–Muslim bigots. Thomas More Attorney Rob Muise is here to discuss the case.
4:20 – Restoring Sanctuary
T. Pitt Green is the pseudonym of a clergy sex abuse survivor who currently lives in the Diocese of Arlington, VA and works with the Diocese’s Victim Assistance Program. Sexual abuse by clergy is not to be taken lightly and the scars linger long after; but in this instance, this survivor shows her journey to peace as a continuing member of the Church. She has written Restoring Sanctuary and is here to discuss her faith – in the face of the greatest of betrayals.
