I knew Brian Jackson years ago & he was working with drug addicts then. I knew a number of ex- cons from Darwen that were helped by 'the Church' who went on to form a Gospel group & travelled the country doing gospel meetings and to my knowledge didn't go back to crime or drugs. That said I too think it was wrong to hold a meeting behind closed doors hoping the people in Ossie wouldn't find out about it until it was too late to raise objections.

Criminals druggies e.t.c can be devious and say what they think you want to hear, my friend took in a family member (druggie) on his release from prison and constantly sung his praises as to how well he was doing.....that is until the police brought him to her house with a bag full of her most precious belongings he had been trying to sell!!!!!!
