He's probably being courted by the same publisher as Dr. Harold Bloomfield, former TM author and poster boy, former candidate for Governor of California on the Natural Law Party ticket.

This happens all the time in politics, sports, in Hollywood. TM would do well to scrub this guy off (never heard of him myself, but then I don't watch TV or follow the TM goings on). So what is so special about the Movement doing the same to this guy, even though he probably was molesting well before he started TM? Doesn't matter though, the guy has to go and I'm sure the Movement is distancing themselves from him as we speak, exactly as they should. So the point of all this was...?
