Yeah, I would think that the boy's family would want to find the thugs who beat their son. A pity that the rest of the congregation apparently won't help the police track them down though.
You must have proof for such an accusatory statement. I must have missed the part in the article that they are in hiding to be "tracked down"--can you point it out for me, please?
Did they not teach the definition of the word "apparently" at your school? In my town, the pastors/priests/rabbis are well known in the community and pretty darned easy to find. The fact that arrest warrants had to be issued in an attempt to find these thugs makes it clear to any thinking person that the police are apparently not getting a lot of cooperation from the flock in finding these wayward "shepherds".
