Victims of Hillsong Church that have finally found the courage to come forward after many years have been told that their evidence will not be taken by the current Royal Commission.
When the Commission was first launched, other victims had said it was going to be nothing more than "a fishing expedition", to find out "who knew what" and "who was still alive", so they [Hillsong] could solve the problems. Then with the announcement of Bob Atkinson on the Commission, and his links to protecting paedophiles sparking a petition to have him removed, former victims did not believe the Royal Commission could possibly attain anything decent let alone justice given his stance on protecting paedophiles.
Other victims that have come forward to give evidence to the Royal Commission have been told that because they have posted about Hillsong and the Royal Commission on various social media sites, that they are unable to now give evidence.
What a nice way of treating victims .. telling them that because they have airred their opinions about child sex offenders & murderers, that their evidence won't be taken into consideration.
Maybe it is more about the fact that the RC know that some people were prepared to give evidence - on more than just child abuse, and had allegations of children being murdered by Hillsong Cult members - and those children are still listed as missing persons to this day on police lists. And that's why they've been prevented from speaking at the RC or any of it's public hearings.
