The Candace Conti v. Watchtower case was one of the most prominent child sexual abuse cases against the Jehovah's Witnesses legal organization called Watchtower. It involved a victim named Candace Conti, who was just nine years old when she was sexually abused by a member of the congregation. But what made this case so notable was the accusation that Watchtower’s policies had led to a cover up and a failure to report the abuse to the authorities.
