Sex Abuser Nathaniel Morales Sentenced to 40 Years in Prison

Nathaniel Morales abused a great number of boys in the New Testament Church, Montgomery County Covenant Academy and Covenant Life Church in Maryland from 1980 until 1992.  

He was investigated starting in October 2009, arrested in October 2012, tried and found guilty on seven of eight counts of sexual abuse and offense against four boys in May 2014, and sentenced today to 40 years in prison. 

C.J. Mahaney, John Loftness, Gary Ricucci, Grant Layman and other pastors at Covenant Life Church knew about these crimes but conspired to cover them up.  They agreed not to report a known sexual predator to law enforcement officials.  As a result of their criminal dereliction, Morales went on to abuse an even greater number of boys in multiple cities in different parts of the United States over the next 20 years.   

Morales left Covenant Life Church in 1992 and married Marcia Jo Griffeth in 1994.  She had no idea he was predatory sex abuser.  Marcia had five boys from a previous marriage.   Morales sexually abused two of them.  She only discovered the extent of his crimes after he was arrested.  She divorced him in December 2013. None of the pastors from CLC have ever contacted her to ask forgiveness or make restitution.

Nathaniel Morales received justice today.  He is 56 years old and will never see the light of day which was the goal of prosecutors.  The conspirators who protected Morales have not yet received justice for their crimes. 

The victims of Morales heinous crimes are glad to see this day but the harms against them can never be forgotten.  Morales is typical of sex abusers in church settings.  The Church and its pastors needs to be educated by experts in the field.  All suspected child abuse must be immediately reported to police.

Thank you Jeremy Cook, Sam Bates., Brian Wolohan and David Tapia for courageously testifying against your abuser.  Thank you Marcia Jo Griffeth for being willing to testify against your former husband.  Thanks to everyone else who supplied supporting testimony and to the other victims who were willing to testify, namely Daniel Bates and James Roberts.  Nate will never harm another child because of your efforts.  

Layman resigned from pastoral ministry at Covenant Life Church after 23 years in April 2014.  Sovereign Grace Ministries continues to highly commend Mahaney, Loftness and Ricucci and taken no action against them. 

The same is true of well-known evangelical leaders like Al Mohler, Mark Dever, Ligon Duncan from Together for the Gospel and D.A. Carson, Kevin DeYoung, Justin Taylor from The Gospel Coalition.  Both groups posted letters on their respective websites in May 2013 defending Mahaney against all charges found in the civil lawsuit against him.  They have never retracted those statements. 

Much more needs to be said about the cover up of sex crimes in Covenant Life Church and Sovereign Grace Ministries.  I plan to say it a few weeks from now.

Educational Services for Immigrant Children and Those Recently Arrived to the United States

PDF (154 KB)

Schools in the United States have always welcomed new immigrant children to their classrooms – according to the most recent data, there were more than 840,000 immigrant students in the United States, and more than 4.6 million English learners. We have begun to receive inquiries regarding educational services for a specific group of immigrant children who have been in the news – children from Central America who have recently crossed the U.S. - Mexico border. This fact sheet provides information to help education leaders better understand the responsibilities of States and local educational agencies (LEAs) in connection with such students, and the existing resources available to help educate all immigrant students – including children who recently arrived in the United States.

Background 

All children in the United States are entitled to equal access to a public elementary and secondary education, regardless of their or their parents' actual or perceived national origin, citizenship, or immigration status. This includes recently arrived unaccompanied children, who are in immigration proceedings while residing in local communities with a parent, family member, or other appropriate adult sponsor.

Under the law, the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is required to care for unaccompanied children apprehended while crossing the border. While in care at an HHS shelter, such children are not enrolled in local schools but do receive educational services and other care from providers who run HHS shelters.

Recently arrived unaccompanied children are later released from federal custody to an appropriate sponsor – usually a parent, relative, or family friend – who can safely and appropriately care for them while their immigration cases proceed. While residing with a sponsor, these children have a right under federal law to enroll in public elementary and secondary schools in their local communities and to benefit from educational services, as do all children in the U.S.

Existing Resources 

Existing resources that may be helpful to communities enrolling immigrant children, including newly arrived immigrant children, include:

• Services for Educationally Disadvantaged Children (Title I): Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) provides funds to raise the achievement of children who attend high-poverty schools. To the extent that newly arrived immigrant children attend Title I schools, they may be eligible to receive Title I, Part A services. Additional information about Title I, Part A programs is available here.
• Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA): IDEA funds may be used by LEAs to evaluate children of any background who are suspected of having a disability under IDEA. Once a child is found to be a child with a disability under IDEA, the funds may be used to provide special education and related services to the child consistent with the child's individualized education program and subject to IDEA's notice and consent provisions. Additional information about IDEA is available here.
• English Language Acquisition Programs: States are required to set aside up to 15 percent of their Title III funds under the ESEA for subgrants to LEAs that have experienced a significant increase in immigrant students. Such funds can be used for a broad range of activities including improving instruction, providing tutoring and intensified instruction, and conducting community participation programs. Such funds may be used to serve newly arrived immigrant children regardless of whether such children are English Learners. Additional information about Title III is available here and here.
• McKinney-Vento Act: The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act delineates educational rights and support for children and youth experiencing homelessness, including guaranteeing immediate access to a free, appropriate public education. Federal law identifies a number of living arrangements such as sharing the housing of others, in which inhabitants would qualify for purposes of the Act. Under McKinney-Vento, school districts must appoint a local liaison to ensure, among other things, that (1) children and youth eligible under McKinney Vento are identified; (2) that they immediately enroll in, and have a full and equal opportunity to succeed in, the schools of the district; and (3) they receive educational services for which they are eligible, and referrals to health care services, dental services, mental health services, and other appropriate services.
  Unaccompanied children who are in HHS shelters would not be eligible for McKinney-Vento services, but children who are released to live with a sponsor may be eligible on a case-by-case basis under the law's broad definition, which includes youth who are living with family members in "doubled-up" housing, i.e., sharing the housing of other persons due to economic hardship or a similar reason. School districts should refer children they believe may qualify to the district's local liaison for further consideration and a determination of McKinney-Vento eligibility. More information about McKinney-Vento eligibility is available here [PDF, 1.4MB] Disclaimer and more information about the rights and services available under the McKinney-Vento Act is available here [PDF, 742KB] Disclaimer.
• Migrant Education Programs (MEP): MEP funds are awarded to States under the authority of Title I, Part C of the ESEA. The MEP provides educational and supportive services to children who are migratory agricultural workers or fishers or who move with a parent or guardian who is a migratory agricultural worker or fisher. Newly arrived immigrant children may qualify as eligible migratory children on a case-by-case basis— provided they meet the program requirements and fit the program-specific definition of migratory child. Additional information about migrant education programs is available here.
• National Clearinghouse for English Language Acquisition: This Clearinghouse provides non-monetary assistance in research-based strategies and approaches such as academic language development, and can also share data and models for the creation of Newcomer Centers to serve recently arrived immigrant students and English language learners. Additional information about the Clearinghouse is available here.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Q1. Do States and school districts have an obligation to educate children who arrived to the United States?
A1. Yes. Under Federal law, States and local educational agencies are obligated to provide all children – regardless of immigration status – with equal access to public education at the elementary and secondary level. This includes children such as unaccompanied children who may be involved in immigration proceedings. The U.S. Departments of Education and Justice published a joint guidance letter on this topic that is available here [PDF, 171KB] and a fact sheet that is available here [PDF, 568KB].

Q2. Where are unaccompanied children housed while in temporary custody?
A2. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) operates about 150 shelters throughout the nation for unaccompanied children that care for the children until they are released to sponsors, on average within 35 days. A majority of these shelters care for fewer than 50 children. Shelters are operated by non-profit organizations, generally as group homes. HHS pays for and provides all services for the children while they are in care at a shelter. This includes providing food, clothing, education, medical screening, and any needed medical care to the children. The children at these shelters do not attend local public schools, do not integrate into the local community, and remain under staff supervision at all times. Additional information about HHS custody is available here.

Q3. Are children provided with basic education services while in temporary custody at HHS shelters?
A3. Yes. The children are provided with basic education services and activities by HHS grantees. Thus, these children do not enroll in local schools while living in HHS shelters.

Q4. Are children who arrived as unaccompanied children ever enrolled in local schools?
A4. While students are in HHS custody at HHS shelters, they will not be enrolled in the local school systems. When students are released to an appropriate sponsor, typically a parent, relative or family member, or other adult sponsor, while awaiting immigration proceedings, they have a right – just like other children living in their community – to enroll in local schools regardless of their or their parents' actual or perceived immigration or citizenship status. State laws also require children to attend school up to a certain age. A small number of children in HHS custody are placed in long-term foster care instead of being released to a sponsor. These children do enroll in public school in the community where their foster care is located. Children in all other care settings receive education at an HHS facility.

Q5. Are immunization records available for children who arrived as unaccompanied children to the United States?
A5. While at HHS shelters, the children receive vaccinations. When a child is released from HHS custody to a sponsor, the sponsor is given a copy of the child's medical and immunization records compiled during their time in custody. If a sponsor does not have a copy of the child's medical or immunization records, the sponsor can request a new copy from HHS via e-mail atRequests.DUCS@acf.hhs.gov.

Q6. Are children who arrived as unaccompanied children eligible for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals?
A6. Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or "DACA," does not apply to children who arrive now or in the future in the United States. To be considered for DACA, individuals must have continually resided in the U.S. since June 2007.

Q7. Do districts have the ability to use Federal education funds to address the needs of unaccompanied children who enroll in the district?
A7. States and LEAs have the ability to use various Federal education funds for this purpose. For example, to the extent that such children attend Title I schools, they may be eligible to receive Title I, Part A services. In addition, as discussed above, States can reserve up to 15% of their Title III formula grants for immigrant subgrants, and if a State has previously reserved a lesser amount, it could increase that amount for next year's subgrants.

Q8. Is there a place to ask additional questions about immigrant children who enroll in the district?
A8. For help with additional questions regarding resources for unaccompanied children, please call the U.S. Department of Education at 1-800-USA-LEARN or visit answers.ed.gov.

FACEBOOK & TWITTER CENSORING CONSERVATIVE CONTENT OF INFOWARS & DELAWARE REPUBLICAN SENATORIAL CANDIDATE

PRESS SUPPRESSION: 

INFOWARS TWITTER ACCOUNT SUSPENDED TWICE 

WITHIN 12 HOURS OF CREATION

Suspension latest in ongoing purge of 

alternative media from Facebook and Twitter

SEE: http://www.infowars.com/press-suppression-infowars-twitter-account-suspended-twice-within-12-hours-of-creation/;

EXCERPT:

Twitter suspended a new Infowars account twice in only 12 hours after it was created, confirming previous reports of an ongoing purge against alternative news on social media.

The account, KitDaniels1776, listed Infowars.com in its description and was only used once to tweet out an Infowars video showing Ferguson, Missouri, police snipers targeting unarmed protestors, but within hours it was suspended as a “suspected spam account” and required a successful CAPTCHA validation to unlock.

But not long after the account was reactivated, and without anything else tweeted from the account, KitDaniels1776 was once again suspended and now requires a mobile phone number to unlock.

In comparison, another Twitter account under Kit Daniels but without Infowars.com in its description has never been suspended in its nearly one year existence.

This suspension is just the latest in an ongoing purge of independent media and social commentators from Facebook and Twitter who expose the establishment’s false narratives.

Last night, the official RealAlexJones Twitter account was blocked from sending tweets and multiple users of Facebook also reported they were unable to share YouTube videos by Infowars and other alternative media outlets, including E.T. Williams and Mark Dice, during the past day.

“I clicked on ‘Share’ at the bottom of YouTube as usual to post [the latest Alex Jones Show] to my Facebook profile to share it with various people from back home [in England,]” Infowars viewer Chris C. said. “Normally it goes straight through, but Facebook gave this error message stating ‘bad content’ or something of that nature.”

Additionally, Facebook was also adding erroneous code to shortened Infowars.com URLs yesterday, so when its users clicked on http://bit.ly/FreeVideoStream for the video stream of the Alex Jones Show, Facebook redirected them to the decoded URL http://bit.ly/FreeVideoStream%EF%BB%BFwhich took them to the wrong page.

This isn’t the first time Facebook has impeded Infowars and other members of the independent press.

In late 2012, for example, Facebook suspended at least 20 accounts operated by individuals in alternative media during a 24 hour period, claiming they violated “Facebook policies,” and the social media giant even threatened to close the official Alex Jones account over an image of Osama Bin Laden with the words “Al-CIA-da” written underneath.

And a lot of this censorship is in fact orchestrated by the government.

“Specifically, the government spends a great deal of manpower and money to monitor which stories, memes and social movements are developing the momentum to actually pose a threat to the status quo,” reported Washington’s Blog. “For example, the Federal Reserve, Pentagon, Department of Homeland Security, and other agencies all monitor social media for stories critical of their agencies … or the government in general. Other governments – and private corporations – do the same thing.”

“Why? Because a story gaining momentum ranks high on social media sites, so it has a high probability of bursting into popular awareness, destroying the secrecy which allows corruption and becoming a real challenge to the powers-that-be.”

How Facebook Can Manipulate the November Election; Delaware Senate Republican Candidate's Event Posting Deleted:

SEE: http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/item/18912-how-facebook-can-manipulate-the-november-election;

EXCERPT:

In a piece entitled “The Facebook Factor in the GOP's Battle to Take the Senate,” Moseley writes that he had started an “Event” on his Facebook page designed to raise money for Republican Kevin Wade, who is running for U.S. Senate in Delaware against Democratic incumbent Chris Coons. Coons is vulnerable, and putting his seat in play increases the GOP’s senatorial fortunes in November. But, reports Moseley, making Wade’s bid realistic requires the candidate raise at least one million dollars through September. This is why what Moseley reports next is eyebrow-raising:

Monday night, Facebook deleted the “Event” this author created: “KEVIN WADE: Don't Hope for Change: Vote for It: $25 from 3,000 for US Senate, Delaware, Republican, by August 20 FEC reporting deadline.” The common function — routinely used by liberals — allows a user to invite his own “friends” (in Facebook terminology) to join in one’s Event. Asking other friends to donate to a cause or a candidate is widely accepted and practiced ... but apparently not for Republicans. The “Event” was deleted, meaning that this author’s over 4,937 Facebook friends will not receive this author’s personal invitation for them to donate to Kevin Wade.

OBAMA HELPED ISIS IN SYRIA, NOW FIGHTS IT IN IRAQ~BOTH UNCONSTITUTIONAL ACTS~ONLY THE MOST STUPID COULD STILL BELIEVE & TRUST HIM

Obama Helped ISIS in Syria, 

Now Fights It in Iraq

SEE: http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/foreign-policy/item/18910-obama-helped-isis-in-syria-now-fights-it-in-iraq;

EXCERPT:

As the Obama administration goes to war in Iraq again — without calling the action a war or even securing permission from Congress, as the Constitution requires — the crucial role played by the U.S. government and its allies in creating and empowering the threat is once again being overlooked. From sending weapons and providing training to the same jihadists in Syria who later crossed into Iraq, to tacitly endorsing the bankrolling of Islamic terror groups by supposed American allies, U.S. foreign policy has been critical in the emergence of the monstrously barbaric self-styled Islamic State “caliphate” formerly known as ISIS.

Now, under the guise of fighting the threat it helped create, the administration is again putting American lives and treasure at risk in violation of the Constitution. The aerial bombing campaigns have already started, supposedly aimed at halting the advance of the Islamic State and its efforts to massacre minorities such as Christians, Yazidis, and others. Despite Obama’s repeated promises of no “boots on the ground,” U.S. Special Forces were reportedly operating in northern Iraq this week as well.

More U.S. weapons, meanwhile — large quantities of which have already been seized by the Islamic State as it advanced through Iraq — are flowing to Kurdish militia forces known as Peshmerga. Separately, even more U.S. military and financial support for the Iran-allied regime in Baghdad is expected soon, too. None of the latest scheming has been authorized by the American people’s elected representatives or the U.S. Constitution.

THE BIG LIE OF THE POLICE,

ALSO KNOWN AS "YOUR FAULTY MISPERCEPTION" 

TWISTS THE FACTS

SEE: http://www.infowars.com/sheriffs-department-ferguson-swat-teams-aided-journalists/ ;

EXCERPTS:

Riot police in Ferguson, Mo., did not attack journalists, nor confiscate camera equipment last night, as reported, but rather they “assisted” reporters and made efforts to move “media personnel to a safer area,” according to a statement put out by the St. Charles County Sheriff’s Dept.

On Thursday, images and video of police firing rubber bullets, tear gas canisters and flash bang grenades at protesters and journalists prompted outcries that Ferguson SWAT teams were engaged in suppression of the First Amendment.

POLICE DISMANTLE PHOTOGRAPHERS' EQUIPMENT & CHASE THEM AWAY WITH RIFLE

But despite footage and multiple eyewitness accounts detailing how cops pointed weapons at and literally shot journalists, tore down news crews’ camera equipment and arrested reporters in nearby restaurants, police insist they were merely helping the media “with their consent,” and that reporters “thanked their officers.”

“In fact, last night the SWAT Team officers were assisting the media in moving their camera equipment and media personnel to a safer area with their consent so that they could continue to cover the event,” a press release from the sheriff’s department states, according to multiple sources.

Furthermore, the sheriff’s department insisted that Al Jazeera journalists, filmed fleeing from their expensive camera equipment, were actually escorted into an armored vehicle, and that photos actually showed riot police helping them by dismantling their equipment.

The statement ludicrously went on to claim that the sheriff’s department “supports the freedom of the press,” and that it did not in any way attempt “to prevent media coverage.”

Here’s more of the statement from Fox2Now:

On Wednesday, August 13th, video footage was taken of St. Charles County SWAT officers handling media camera equipment. The position of the St. Charles County Sheriff’s Department is that the media has the right to cover these events and supports the freedom of the press, and the SWAT Team has not been any part of attempting to prevent media coverage.

The department’s attempts to smooth over the situation is humorous given the abundance of evidence showing police did in fact attack journalists.

Infowars reporters Josh Owens, Jakari Jackson and Joe Biggs can all attest that police did not have anyone’s First Amendment in mind and were definitely not there to “assist” them, as the statement claims.

The blatant disconnect between the department’s statement and what actually took place is reminiscent of scenes out of Tim Burton’s film Mars Attacks!, in which Martians chased and slaughtered civilians, all while professing “We come in peace,” and “Don’t run, we are your friends.”

WOUND REPORTER IN ATTACK 

ON PROTESTORS

Police use MRAPs, helicopters to 

hunt down journalists in Ferguson, Missouri

SEE: http://www.infowars.com/ferguson-riot-police-wound-reporter-in-attack-on-protestors/;

EXCERPTS:

In Ferguson, Missouri, Infowars reporter Joe Biggs was shot in the kidneys Wednesday night by St. Louis Co. Police using flash bangs and rubber bullets during protests over the police shooting of an unarmed teenager four days ago.

Additionally, the police were hunting down journalists amongst the demonstrators after arresting two prior to the assault.

The militarized police, equipped with combat armor and Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles, unloaded on the media and demonstrators near the burnt down QuikTrip gas station on West Florissant Ave. around 9pm Central after someone threw a Motolov cocktail on top of a nearby car wash, lighting it completely on fire.

“I got shot in the kidneys with one of those rubber rounds and had two gas canisters come right at me,” Biggs reported. “When I got up, I couldn’t see so I went in one direction and lost [Infowars reporter] Jakari Jackson and [Infowars cameraman] Josh Owens.”

Owens made it inside of a car with a reporter from Vice News but police pinned down their vehicle and shot flash bangs and tear gas at them.

Prior to the attack, police used an MRAP to get within firing range of the protestors.

“You must leave the area immediately,” the police barked over a megaphone. “Failure to do so will subject you to arrest.”

Not long after, the demonstrators on West Florissant Ave. were assaulted.

“We all got split up when a SWAT Team approached us and started throwing flash bangs and shooting tear gas and all kinds of [so-called] non-lethal rounds at us,” Biggs said, who was dropped to his knees by the round that hit him. “That took my breath away but when I was finally able to take a breath, I took in a nice helping of tear gas.”

The police also used helicopters as forward observers for the MRAPs crawling through clouds of tear gas like tanks during World War I.

“They are shutting down the entire road and there’s word that they are looking specifically for journalists to arrest them,” Biggs revealed. “Why? Because they don’t want the truth about what’s going on to come out.”

On Saturday, Michael Brown, 18, died after being shot by a Ferguson police officer, the shooting of which sparked off mass protests over the past several days in the St. Louis suburb of around 21,000.
