A San Diego, USA, judge has found that the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witness church covered up years of sexual abuse by a local church leader and continued to put children in danger of being molested, U-T San Diego reported.

The Jehovah’s Witnesses’ hierarchal body was ordered to pay Jose Lopez $13.5 million in damages for the abuse he suffered in 1986 at the age of 7, as part of the church’s Linda Vista Spanish congregation.

Six other men and one woman who said they also were molested by the same man, church leader Gonzalo Campos, have also sued the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Gazeta.ru reported.
