Very well stated, I couldn't agree with you more. Clearly, John Roe did NOT have Lori DeKleine's interest (mental or physical) in mind or anybody else's. Although, John is also married with children, he was purely thinking of his own selfish, sexual gratification. What a considerate husband and father, NOT..
**Additionally, As I stated on this forum previously, I personally know of John Roe's history with previous female clients and co-workers. At which time, I also left a posting on "The Holland Sentinel" forum stating the same as I left here. As, I felt individuals in the community had the right to know.
Only to have it removed from the site, along with an email from the media director warning me not to post it again.
Apparently, individuals in Holland are content to believe that John Roes reputation should somehow be kept private. I think its a shame that Lori DeKleine didn't receive that same respect..

Slidelock and Mabel Smith,
I wonder if it would help victims come forward if they knew there were other women he crossed the line with, and that they are not the only ones. Because doesn't John Roe's suspension expire this month?

If there are indeed other victims who Roe had an inappropriate relationship while counseling, these women should come forward and make statements so re-instatement of his license is not an immediate consideration. If this is true, steps should be taken to bring this out in the open so that other women can be protected and safequarded in the future. I agree with you on this one.

The best thing is - justice will be served over and over and over for the rest of his life.
Thoughts and prayers go out to Lori's family especially her children. RIP Lori!!!!!!

Exactly! The question is how do we help provide a safe and comfortable way for these women to come forward? As it stands now the allegation process seems to protect the perpetrator therapist. I am sure these women are humiliated and who would want their medical treatment records opened? This is an extremely sensitive matter of the mind, heart, body and spirit. I am determined to find a way to unite these women (I have a feeling there are many)...any suggestions?

I agree, I would also like to help provide a safe and comfortable way for these women to come forward. Since the DeKleine story has come out, I have spoken with the two women/clients who I know, whose rights were violated by John Roe, their therapist. Unfortunately, neither are interested in coming forward. Both, said they just want to leave/put it in the past and "move on". I cannot say that I'm surprised, I also believe it is because the "allegation process seems to protect the perpetrator therapist."

Yes. I had similar reactions from those I know. But maybe they could find strength if they came together to say ENOUGH. As far as I can tell this has been going on for years. No more women or their families should have to suffer. How can we get the word out to unite these women? A newspaper ad? A website? Flyers?
