For Love and For Justice / Part 89 / Zabeth and Paul Bayne

An update from the Baynes.


The MCFD tried to place an application on a publicity ban after the CBC story aired on the January 13th.

http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-columbia/story/2010/01/14/bc-shaken-baby-court-case-surrey-chilliwack.html

Doug Christie, the Bayne’s lawyer opposed this application arguing that that the public had a right to be informed and that the media had the right to participate and defend their position on reporting. The judge stated, after a 30 minute adjournment, that he was not going to approve the application this quickly. He felt the decision to ban media from reporting on this case would not only affect this case but others to come in the future. The MCFD told the court that they would not proceed with the application to ban publicity on this case. Praise God.

There is no ban and Doug Christie defended the rights of the media to report and the people to be informed.

Please continue to pray for Paul & Zabeth for these next court sessions. Their lawyer has asked them to quit their jobs or take a leave for one month as he wants them close by to assist him. If you wish to assist them financially and help out in any way they would greatly appreciate it.
Please pray that the following the trial God will provide them with work again.
