Why don't you ask him?

This is Scott Ross' 2008 Bio that the C&MA sent out (the picture of he and his wife at the top of the flyer didn't "copy":

The Ross Group
Scott Ross
Principal

Scott Ross has been a member of New Tribes Mission for 22 years and House Counsel for 14 years. He is a graduate of Idaho State University and Gonzaga University Law School and is licensed to practice law in the states of Washington, Idaho and Florida. For 10 years Scott had a general practice of law in Spokane, Washington with an emphasis on criminal defense and then for 2 years served as a City Attorney.

Scott and his wife Debbie together with his two children served with New Tribes Mission in Papua New Guinea from 1987 until 1993 when he was transferred to New Tribes Mission’s home office in Sanford Florida to join the Crisis Management team handling the kidnapping of three of NTM’s missionaries in Panama. For the next 11 years Scott worked on kidnappings in Panama, Colombia, Indonesia and the Philippines as well as filled the House Counsel role for New Tribes Mission.

At present Scott is General Counsel for New Tribes Mission, consultant to the Southern Baptist International Mission Board, an adjunct senior trainer for Fort Sherman Academy, an international crisis management training academy. He has consulted on several crisis events for numerous missions and has been lead investigator in over 120 mission child abuse investigations. Scott has produced a 5 part video series on child abuse and a video on common mistakes made by churches and missions when confronted with a child abuse allegation which is being used by several mission agencies in their child safety programs.

He is considered one of the premier investigators in resolving charges of abuse by missionary children. His success rate in proving the guilt of the perpetrators is well over 85 percent. He is the author of training material for NTM related to preventing child abuse and a key player in establishing the Child Safety & Protection Network of mission agencies.

You would have to be delusional and in denial to think Mr. Ross has the MKs in his best interest. A well played drama, is often tear jerking and believable.

From Pat Hendix

“I’m sure by now that you have heard that I have been replaced as the coordinator for the Independent Historical Abuse Review Team. I just wanted to say that it has been a privilege and honor to have been a part of the process for the past three years. I have been honored to hear your stories, to cry with some of you, and to work toward justice and healing for you all. Pleaseknow that you are in my prayers and thoughts as the investigations go forward.

I'm sorry, Rachel. For you, and all of us who have experienced this betrayal. There is so much pain and betrayal for those of us who grew up with the mission as our family and community of origin....I have found it to be one of the greatest sources of pain of all. Hugs.

The Panama Reps are getting an answer to the exposure of the raw interviews. I will post an update as soon as I hear.
