Jonathan Godson, Chris & Clare Godson..........................paedophile cult.

Despite sharing the revulsion of our contributors for Chris and Clare Godson……

Posted on October 10, 2013

Despite sharing the revulsion of our contributors for Chris and Clare Godson we intend to automatically delete/censor/edit comments of the “string ‘em up” kind.
So don’t bother posting aggressive comments!
We at Kelleher Newsdesk know that the crimes committed by this cult, and Chris and Clare Godson in particular, evoke powerful emotions and the understandable desire to see some rough justice done but the purpose of this Blog is to WARN people and seek the intervention of law enforcement in the sordid “activities” of the cult……….
The Godsons are very sick people who need to be seen as suffering from profoundly disabling mental illness and treated as such!

Though the Godsons promised they were becoming more mainstream, the group is getting crazier and crazier.

In the late nineties the Godson Cult established a multitude of humanitarian front groups. Hiding under the cover of these organizations, members of the cult have been able to return back to the countries from which they were expelled. Child abusers, who should have been locked up long ago for the many crimes they have committed, not only are free to walk the streets, but are providing direct services to children.

In the USA missionary camp where the Godsons started their career as “missionaries” there were sex schedules posted on the walls with names of adults paired to have sex with minors!
Adult-child sex was a practice that was officially sanctioned from the top. It most certainly was not just random pedophilia on the part of some. They were not just a few isolated cases, as the Godsons claim.
Many first hand accounts of child sexual abuse can be found at the various former member websites as well as this Blog. Even a small number of former members of the group have admitted to such crimes. In reading these accounts, it becomes very clear that these abuses were going on in many of the group homes all around the world and for a long period of time. And, the threat posed by the Godson couple in Benevent l’Abbaye is very real.

A huge number of converts/men were sexually serviced by child prostitutes drawn in by the cult. The cult was so commercially successful in Ireland they even operated their own escort services. Fixed prices were set for various sexual acts. The leadership promoted cult-directed child prostitution.

The sheer cruelty of the crimes committed by the Godson Cult in the USA and Ireland convinces us at Kelleher Newsdesk that our WARNING blog provides an essential service!
We continue, with other colleagues in the media, to be amazed that Chris and Clare Godson are so brazen in their attempt to bring the cult to France………

Children of God:

In the late 1960s Rev. Moses (David) Berg — the self-proclaimed prophet and Children of God founder — began preaching a bizarre brew of sex and scripture. In writings and preaching, Berg advocated free love among his disciples, including adult-child sex. It was as promising “missionaries” for this depraved cult in the USA  that the Godsons put together their own cult………………………………………………

“The young girls drawn in to this cult must be rescued from this evil environment as soon as possible……………I have managed to escape but fear the long reach and vindictiveness of Clare Godson.”  a quote from a recent email received.

PAEDOPHILE JAILED FOR 8 YEARS

A 49-YEAR-OLD MAN HAS BEEN JAILED FOR EIGHT YEARS FOR POSSESSING NEARLY 70,000 INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN.

JONATHAN RICHARD GODSON SUPPLIED THOUSANDS OF INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN VIA TWO WEBSITES.

THE FORTY NINE YEAR OLD WAS THE ADMINISTRATOR OF A WEBSITE THAT DISTRIBUTED THE IMAGES.

JERSEY POLICE SAY HE IS A DANGER TO YOUNG PEOPLE.

DETECTIVE INSPECTOR PAUL KENNEA SAID, “JONATHAN GODSON WAS A PROLIFIC SUPPLIER OF INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN AND IT IS LIKELY THIS BEHAVIOUR WOULD HAVE CONTINUED IF HE WAS NOT CAUGHT.

“HE NOT ONLY DOWNLOADED INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN, BUT ACTIVELY SHARED THEM WITH OTHERS, THUS ENCOURAGING FURTHER OFFENDING, AND FURTHER ADDING TO THE SUFFERING OF VICTIMS.

“HE POSSESSED THOUSANDS OF IMAGES OF CHILDREN AND HOURS OF VIDEO.

“EVERY INDECENT IMAGE OF CHILDREN CONTAINS A VICTIM OF CRIME, AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO ACTIVELY PURSUE PEOPLE WHO ARE CONNECTED TO INDECENT IMAGES OFFENCES, WHETHER THAT IS THE PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION OR POSSESSION OF SUCH IMAGES.”

Ariela settled into Benevent l’Abbaye for three days before heading down to family in the Dordogne. As a good journalist she routinely chatted to people she encountered and was determined to find out more about the Godson Cult. She quickly got into a conversation with M****l, a tall affable frenchmen who had retired to Benevent l’Abbaye, he was certainly no admirer of the Godson couple. M****l was definitely a character and remarkably forthright!

M****l explained that he was on the receiving end of “the Finger” when the Godson couple steamed by in one of their rusty tippers. M****l also outlined the detestation felt by everyone in the village for this “smarmy” couple with their insincere smiles &  greetings. He also, surprisingly, was aware of the “Creeepy Chris” nick given by local British to Godson. The detestation was also for some of the degenerate lowlife characters living with the Godsons.

He had always suspected the Godson couple and was not surprised to hear about their paedophile background.

Godson and his unbelieveably depraved wife exercised absolute control over his cult  in a quiet part of Wicklow. The format followed was  abusing and exploiting helpless children as ‘sex toys’  on a commercial basis for a number of years. When it looked that they finally might be caught they took the hint from a “friendly” gard to run to France.  Law enforcement agencies, local councillors, the Irish media were alerted within months of the Godsons setting up shop in Ireland………..and they took no action?

Oxford Paedophile Gang: ‘Living Hell’ of Burning, Biting, Urination and Forced Miscarriages

A nine-member paedophile gang burnt and beat its victims and used an “instrument” to make one miscarry, a court has heard.

A jury at London’s Old Bailey was told the Oxford-based gang inflicted “humiliating and degrading” treatment on up to six girls aged 11 to 15. The treatment included biting, suffocation, burning and scratching.

Abusers from around the country travelled to Oxford to rape the children at venues such as empty houses. The victims were plied with so much alcohol and drugs they were sometimes barely aware of what was happening to them.

The defendants also urinated on the victims during bouts of abuse which went on for days. When one 12-year-old victim fell pregnant, the abusers forced her to miscarry.

Victims were targeted because they were vulnerable and then groomed by members of the gang to be child prostitutes, the court heard.

Charges against the group took nearly 30 minutes to be read out. The men were charged with rape, conspiring to rape a child, arranging the prostitution of a child, making a threat to kill and trafficking.Kamar Jamil, 27, Akthtar Dogar, 32, Anjum Dogar, 30, Assad Hussain, 32, Mohammed Karrar, 38, Bassam Karrar, 26, Mohammed Hussain, 24, Zeeshan Ahmed, 27, and Bilal Ahmed, 26, pleaded not guilty on all counts.The Asian sex gang were arrested as part of ‘Operation Bullfinch’, a police investigation into a gang alleged to have sexually exploited up to 24 girls aged 11 to 24 in the Oxford areaProsecuting QC Noel Lucas revealed one victim described the lifestyle as a “living hell”, adding:”The depravity, and I use that word with care, of what was done to the complainants was extreme.”The facts in this case will make you feel uncomfortable.”The girls were usually given so many drugs that they were barely aware of what was going on. Indeed, they say it was the only way they could cope with what was going on.”Between acts of abuse sometimes stretching over a number of days, the Oxford men ensured girls were guarded so that they could not escape.”arielacohen99@gmail.com

Inside the Mind of a Pedophile

Posted by dlende on May 10, 2010

By Michael Cochran & Meghan Cole

Most people imagine pedophiles as ugly old men dressed in trench coats, hiding in the bushes, waiting to snatch young children off the street. However, recent television shows, such as To Catch a Predator, have exposed pedophiles as local neighbors, trusted friends, clergy, babysitters, teachers, and even family members.

Conceptions about pedophiles have been changing rapidly, and pedophilia has recently become a topic of increased awareness and concern. Not only do television shows expose pedophiles, but there are new sexual offender disclosure laws, websites that track convicted sexual offenders, and more investigations of pedophilia, especially after the sex abuse scandal in the Catholic Church. Yet children still remain vulnerable to sexual offenders regardless of their public façade.

The increasing attention on pedophilia has caused many Americans to question what this disorder entails, its characteristics, and what type of treatment should be sought for abusers. What is pedophilia? Do people choose to be pedophiles or are they born that way? This post will address these questions.

Pedophilia

The American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) defines pedophilia as recurrent sexually arousing fantasies, impulsive desires, or behaviors involving sexual acts with a child and that occur over a period of at least six months. In most cases, the pedophile is at least sixteen years of age and at least five years older than the child. Those who suffer from pedophilia have a compulsion to abuse young children.

Categorizing Pedophiles

Pedophiles can be classified in several ways. Pedophilia can be characterized as either exclusive or non-exclusive. Exclusive pedophiles are attracted only to children. They show no interest in sexual partners who are not prepubescent children. This desire prolongs even when they are not in the presence of children. Non-exclusive pedophiles are attracted to both adults and children. A large percentage of male pedophiles are homosexual or bisexual in orientation to children, meaning they are attracted to male children or both male and female children (Schiffer, 2008).

Many people assume that only males are pedophiles. However, case studies on pedophilia have demonstrated that female pedophilia does exist (Chow, 2002). Although this is a rare phenomenon, females who meet the DSM-IV criteria for pedophiles display similar cognitive distortions to that of males, such as irrational thoughts. Some differences, however, do exist among males and females. Females who exhibit pedophilia tend to suffer from psychiatric disorders or substance abuse problems. Also, there is a higher correlation between sexual abuses as a child with females compared to males.

What Causes Pedophilia?

The etiology of pedophilia can be attributed to both biological and environmental factors. Case studies indicate that cerebral dysfunction may be a contributing or dominant factor of pedophilia (Scott, 1984), including problems with self-control, extreme urges, and cognitive distortions. Many experts also believe that disorders for sexual preferences emerge from childhood experiences during critical periods in human development (DiChristina, 2009). In many cases, child sex abusers suffer from traumatic experiences during their childhood.

More specifically, pedophiles tend to also have been molested as children. As children, they lacked the ability to control the situation. By sexually assaulting children, pedophiles attempt to re-live the trauma they experienced and they learn how to master it. A complete role reversal gives them the upper hand and prevents them from being victimized. Overall, through the impact of cerebral dysfunction and traumatic development, the sexual urges and desires for children can become ingrained within a person’s nervous system.

Role of the Brain

There is significant evidence that indicate structural abnormalities in the brains of pedophiles (Schiffer, 2008). Abnormalities occur when the brain is developing and can be on-set through certain experiences, such as sexual abuse as a child. Abnormalities in the brains of pedophiles may result in compulsion, poor judgment, and repetitive thoughts.

These abnormalities in the brains of pedophiles are caused by early neurodevelopmental perturbations (Schiffer, 2008). The use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRIs) and positron emission tomography scans (PET) has revealed that the abnormalities of pedophiles exhibit appear in the frontal and central regions of the brain. In particular, there is a decreased volume of gray brain matter in the central striatum. As a result, the nucleus accumbens, orbital frontal cortex, and the cerebellum are all affected (Schiffer, 2008).

These areas of the brain play an important role in addictive behavior. The accumbens is the central mediator of reward signaling and expectation. The striatum and orbito frontal cortex control this reward system. As a result, this contributes to the etiology of pedophilia because a reward deficiency complication disturbs the neurotransmission of dopamine involved in compulsive and addictive behaviors.

Due to the frontotemporal dysfunctions, pedophilia shares neural characteristics with psychiatric disorders that fall in the range of the obsessive-compulsive (OC) spectrum. These impulsive disorders include pathological gambling, kleptomania, and even Tourettes syndrome. While some debate this claim (Schiffer et al., 2007), there is substantial evidence for the existence of physiological and genetic overlaps. In particular, studies have shown that alterations in the frontostriatal circuitry are a major abnormality leading to obsessive-compulsive behavior. Pedophiles tend to act inappropriately and exhibit poor judgment because they lack the ability to control their impulses.

These structural alterations underlie the antisocial behaviors exhibited by someone with pedophilia. Pedophiles are burdened with repetitive thoughts and urges. Consequently, they seek to fulfill these desires through behavior that is socially unacceptable and at times, even illegal. Most pedophiles express shame and guilt after partaking in their immoral behavior because their neurological dysfunctions deal strictly with urges and not emotions (Schiffer et al., 2007).

Is There a Cure?

Pedophilia, like many types of disturbances or diseases, does not have a complete cure. The sexual urges associated with pedophilia may never permanently disappear, and a person’s sexual preference and orientation can be difficult to completely re-orient. At present, treatment primarily focuses on preventing further offenses rather than changing sexual orientation.

Yuli Grebchenko, MD, has done extensive research on pedophiles. He noted that pedophilia is a life-long disorder and stated that, “It needs lifelong treatment” (Lamberg, 2005). Recent studies have demonstrated that psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy can be combined to bring about the most effective treatment to someone suffering from pedophilia (Kersebaum, 2007).

Therapy includes discussing traumatic events, especially those from the childhood of an abuser. Therapy also seeks to help patients identify situations that may tempt them to engage in harmful behaviors toward children. During therapeutic treatment, therapists may try to correct a patient’s cognitive disorder, which may include misperceptions that the child enjoyed the abuse.

The three standard pharmacotherapy treatments for pedophilia are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH), and leuprolide acetate (LA) (Briken, 2003). These pharmacotherapy treatments target certain hormones and chemicals in the body, but have varying side effects. SSRIs are effective in less severe cases and patients often experience only sexual side effects (Kraus, 2007). In more serious cases, LA can reduce testosterone to extremely low levels along with pedophilic urges. While LA treatment is somewhat dangerous, it has been found to be very effective (Schober, 2005). The newest treatment drug, LHRH, reduces neural responsiveness to visual sexual stimuli and has very little side effects (Briken, 2003).

Today’s World

Most people are in denial that pedophilia exists in their community or home. Pedophiles, however, will go to great lengths to continue their compulsive behavior. They will volunteer in church youth groups, coach youth athletic teams, and find other ways to associate with potential victims. Many times, they place themselves in positions where they can easily meet children.

The Internet has become a common hunting ground to prey on children. Today more and more kids are using Facebook accounts. While Facebook acts as a social network to help link people together, the ability to create a profile displaying one’s personal information may indirectly be helping pedophiles find their next victim. Pedophiles can then befriend children and manipulate, trap, and lure their victims into a false sense of trust. Some pedophiles may pretend they are someone else, such as a classmate. Others develop friendship with children and then arrange meeting times and places so they can act upon and fulfill their sexual desires (Deirmenjian, 2009).

The Catholic Church frowns upon certain sexual behavior. Yet, priests were recently discovered to have engaged in sexual behavior with children. A great deal of hypocrisy surrounds the sex abuse scandal in the Catholic Church. Over the course of the past two decades, the Church has struggled with confronting sex crimes committed by Catholic priests and religious orders against children. In many cases, the clergy suffered from pedophilia. These priests sexually abused minors, primarily male altar servers, and exerted power over these boys.

The children who fell victim to the clergy were easily accessible, vulnerable, and unthreatening. These priests who engaged in sexual behavior with youth should be held responsible for their actions. The Church should come forward and acknowledge this type of inappropriate behavior. They should take the proper steps to correct this type behavior and have their pedophilic priests seek treatment for their disorder.

Conclusion

Pedophilia is a complex disorder with many underlying factors. These range from dysfunctions in the development of the brain to particular traumatic experiences, such as sexual abuse or rape as a child. Despite no cure for pedophilia, measures can be taken to help people with this disorder control their urges and behavior. Society needs to be more aware of this disorder and its prevalence in everyday life. So while not all people who engage with children are pedophiles, the prominence of pedophiles across many facets of life is much greater than we think.
