Caught in the Criminal Justice System

Sue writes:

A matter about a robbery of a CLTC vehicle has been dragging on since before we came back in July. A college driver and another employee were transporting a finance department employee to Hagen to deposit a large amount of cash and checks at the bank. The vehicle arrived in town before the bank opened. In the few minutes between the arrival and the bank opening, a raskol made off with the large deposit.

The finance employee was arrested. It seems the police didn't have enough evidence against the employee, because the case was thrown out by the judge. A new charge has been lodged, though, and the case is dragging on.

The female employee is now housed in Baisu Prison near Hagen. Folks from campus go often to visit her and bring food and other items she needs. It may be another couple weeks before the case comes before the judge again.

Here is the verse God gave me to share with the woman when a group of us visited her Sunday.
...the Lord longs to be gracious to you;
He rises to show you compassion.
For the Lord is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for Him!
Isaiah 30:18

Please join us in praying that the Lord will bring about justice in this case and will show compassion to those who are waiting for Him.
