WGI Members claim moral victory in Canadian case
By WGI (Published 08/12/2004)

WGI Members who were originally charged with offences under the Criminal Code of Canada were today celebrating a moral victory when all criminal charges were dropped by the Prosecution. The WGI Members charged were prominent members of their local communities. The Members had consistently protested their innocence and were prepared to mount a vigorous defence to prove that innocence. Their defence proposed to include evidence from witnesses from every walk of Canadian life from police officers to priests. Nonetheless at the 11^th hour before trial the crown offered to withdraw all charges carrying a criminal record if the Members would plead guilty to a lesser (non-criminal) offence that carried a simple fine.

The Members were planning to stage a defence not only in protection of their honour but also their very livelihood. These Members had also been living in the shadow of these allegations for almost two years. Therefore the Members made a decision to accept the offer of the Crown and in so doing get on with the rest of their lives.  Despite almost two years of an investigation that has been referred to as over zealous in some quarters, Prosecutors were obliged to accept that the original charges against WGI Members could not be proven.

The offer accepted by WGI Members is interesting inasmuch that Members are free to retain all proceeds from their activity within WGI. Further WGI has not been declared criminal in Canada. WGI applauds the Members for their grace and dignity through this entire unfortunate episode and wishes them every success as they return to their normal lives free from the spectre of criminal allegations.

I wonder why the members were charged to begin with. It's the promotors who deserved what they got on December 6, 2004.

If only I had issued a DICK CLARK Alert (tm).

For those reading slampen's remarks above, please note that he is a lackey for this WGI scam outfit, and is frankly not to be trusted.  He has a stake of some type in WGI - and may in fact be one of the principles of the sleazy company.

I'm sure he will attempt to post some kind of rebuttal to this, but the funny thing is that he told me that if WGI was ever found formally guilty of anything that he would change his mind about them.  The fact that many countries have now found them guilty, and he has not changed his mind is quite instructive.  It just proves my point about him.

Wow, Thanx for the info Todd. His post did seem kinda fishy cos I read the promotors plead guilty on December 6, 2004... then slampen posted something Published 08/12/2004.
