We the undersigned wish to state beyond doubt that the cult with the following pseudonyms known as:

The Children of God

The Family of Love

The Family

The Family International

Engaged in the following crimes in a systematic fashion.

That their leaders,

David Brandt Berg, Karen Zerby and Steven Kelly actively condoned, and demanded this behaviour of all cult members both adult and adolescent, worldwide from 1968 until at least 2007 if not to the present day

Forced sexual relations of children with adults

Forced sexual relations of preteen and teenage girls with adults

Forced prostitution

Forced unpaid work as in begging, household chores, cooking, cleaning, hard manual labor and proselytising

Denial of basic human rights including

Beatings, whippings, speech restriction, cruel and unusual punishments as defined as torture under the human rights convention, denial of food, water, incarceration, solitary confinement, kidnapping, brain washing, denial of education, medicare, adaquate living conditions, blackmail, extortion, tax and income fraud,

We state that these were not isolated incidences as the cult leaders and their associates claim but that this in fact, without a doubt was commited with the full knowledge, consent and propagation of all cult leaders and many of the adult cult members

There is no doubt that these people are responsible for the many deaths, suicides and other ruined lives of hundreds if not thousands of second and third generation children who were unfortunate enough to be born into this cult
