But the judge does have some concerns in this case involving a member of the International Churches of Christ (a cult of Christianity).

Niall MacMahon (40), from Watling Street, Dublin 8, was killed instantly after he stepped in front of the DublinBelfast train at Harmonstown Dart station on the evening of 2 March, 2006. He had suffered from depression. His brother and father told the Sunday Tribune that his involvement with the cult-like International Church of Christ group, which they damned had “undue influence” over him, was a “contributory factor” in his death.

A controversial religious cult has been blamed for the death of a man who threw himself in front of a train. An inquest heard yesterday that Niall MacMahon, 40, a member of the International Church of Christ, left a suicide note full of references to the Bible and his own damnation.

Nathalie Gettliffe, the woman at the center of a bitter international custody case was sentenced to 16 months in prison by a Canadian judge who said Monday she brainwashed her children and misled the French public with lies about her former husband.

The sentencing ends a bizarre case in which Gettliffe-Grant protested her treatment in Canadian jails and put her name up for election of the French presidency. She also gave birth to a baby while in jail awaiting trial.

A woman who fled to France with her two children and accused their father of being a brute involved in a zealous religious cult told a French television station she’d do the same again, a Crown prosecutor said Thursday.
