The two captors of the Dutch family held for 9 years had both been members of the Family Federation or Unification Church

Published October 17, 2019.  Updated October 18 - 22, 2019.

‘John Eagles’ is Gerrit Jan van Dorsten – who ‘imprisoned’ six of his own children on a farm.

Police have rescued six young adults (four women and two men, aged 18-25) of the van Dorsten family living at a remote Dutch farm. Police were alerted when Jan Zon van Dorsten, a 25-year-old man, walked into a local bar. He looked dirty and was wearing old-fashioned clothes. He said he had not had a haircut in nine years. The bar-owner raised the alarm with police after Jan revealed he had never been to school and said he had run away and needed help. He said he wanted his lifestyle to “come to an end.” Jan said he was the oldest of the six children.

The Police came to investigate on Tuesday and found a hidden staircase behind a cabinet in the living room of the farmhouse. At the point when they were discovered, the five other siblings thought that they were the only people left on earth, the broadcaster RTV Drenthe reported. According to reports, they could barely speak and communicated in a “fantasy language” parts of which were “incomprehensible.” The father of the six young adults, Gerrit Jan van Dorsten, 67, was found bed-ridden. He had suffered a stroke about two years previous.

Josef Brunner, 58, who had rented the farm was arrested at the property. Reports say the farm was equipped with motion detectors and security cameras. Locals also claimed Brunner locked the gate and kept watch using binoculars. He’d reportedly chase away anyone who came too close to the secluded property.

After the young adults were released and living in a safe place, the former ‘prisoners’ were observed to be taking part in frequent rituals where they moved in circles. They were then taken to a more private safe location where they are being given appropriate care. The police want to understand what happened over the past decade, but are being considerate of their psychological needs.

Josef Brunner appeared before an examining magistrate on Thursday and was detained for 14 days on suspicion of unlawfully depriving the children of their liberty and money laundering. Later, Gerrit Jan van Dorsten was also arrested.

Brunner was born on March 3, 1961 in Waldhausen, Austria and was one of five peasant children. He completed a carpentry apprenticeship with distinction, but while enrolled in the army in Linz he joined a sect.

He met a Japanese woman who introduced him to the Unification Church (now the Family Federation for World Peace). He had two children with her. Through the ‘Moonies’, Josef Brunner came into contact with Gerrit Jan van Dorsten in the late 1990s. Gerrit Jan had been a member of the Unification Church in the 1980s. He left in 1987 but to this day he still embraces many of their ideas. LINK

Together Joseph Brunner, known as the Austrian, and Gerrit Jan moved to the farm in 2010. Joseph was a carpenter and lived in a caravan behind his workshop. It was some four miles from the farmhouse. Neighbors saw him regularly visit the farm in his Volvo where he dropped off groceries and supplies.

Joseph Brunner’s brother, Franz, claims Joseph became delusional after joining the Unification Church. He said, “Josef has a very strong persuasiveness.” 

Franz said Josef had been married to a Japanese woman.

“In 2006 or 2007, Josef left his wife and children behind in Austria and went to the Netherlands.” Franz told NL Times.

“Josef regularly visited Gerrit Jan van Dorsten with his wife and daughters.” 

“Josef’s daughters, now adults, tried in vain to get in touch with him in 2017.”

The two arrested men had close business ties. Brunner paid the rent on van Dorsten’s toy craft store in Mepple and another storage unit nearby – as well as the rent for the farm.

According to a van Dorsten family statement. “Eight years ago, three older children of Gerrit Jan – Dino (Endino), Shin and Marjan, 29 – fled the family in Hasselt and contacted their brother from a previous marriage, their grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins.” 

"The family has taken notice of the events in Ruinerwold with dismay," the statement, translated from Dutch, says.

"Mr Gerrit Jan van Dorsten broke all ties with his immediate family in the 1980s. He told us not to make any attempt to find his place of residence."

"At present, it is the express wish of the family to support the discovered family," the statement said.

Gerrit Jan’s children were never registered with local officials or went to school.

Janny Knol, North Netherlands deputy police chief, said "on the farm there was actually a separate, closed-off area and its main aim was to keep the outside world out," she told Dutch TV. 

She said the imprisoned family were kept in an 'enclosed space' that was 'divided into small compartments.' The room was hidden behind a staircase, behind a locked door. Daylight was allowed inside, and children were occasionally allowed into the yard but they didn't go beyond farm's perimeter fence during nine years of captivity. She said, “We are investigating whether a certain religion or philosophy forms the cause of their living situation.”

Police found “tens of thousands of euros of laundered money” hidden on the property.

Jan Zon van Dorsten, 25, stated that his mother died in 2004 and “every day we are happy to take care of Dad”.

Gerrit Jan was initially believed to be one of the victims of Josef Brunner, but he has now been charged as “co-perpetrator of unlawful deprivation of liberty and of abuse, in the sense of prejudicing the health of others and money laundering.”

When Gerrit Jan and his brother, Derek, both joined the UC in the 1980s, their devoutly Protestant parents were very much against it. The father was a prolific author of Christian novels. Gerrit Jan was active in the UC in Amsterdam.

Gerrit Jan van Dorsten was a member in 1984. He worked as a Munich correspondent for the New York City Tribune at that time.

Gerrit Jan left the Unification Church in 1987. His estranged brother Derek van Dorsten, a long-time member of the UC said, "I have not heard from my brother since 1984."

A Church spokesman, Willem Koetsier, said “Sometimes people with spiritual inclinations found their own church or movement. I think this was the case with him. It could be that he thought he had a special mission.”

After a few years in the UC Gerrit Jan appears to have become ill at ease. According to reports in the Dutch media, he retreated from the church after announcing that he had begun “receiving signals” from Moon’s son, who is regarded as a prophetic figure within the faith. That son was Heung Jin Moon who had died in a car accident on January 2, 1984. 

Heung Jin was buried in Korea on January 8, 1984. A week later, Rev. Moon proclaimed that his son had a new mission and that he was free to travel between his spirit world and our physical world. Rev. Moon also proclaimed that Heung Jin became a leader to Jesus in the spirit realm and that he had assumed the role of “the commander-in-chief” to those who are unmarried in the spirit realm.”

▲ Sun Myung Moon wrote this calligraphy for his son: “Absolute Victory of Moon Heung Jin 文興進 as Commander-in-Chief of Heaven.”

On February 28, 1984, Heung Jin was married postmortem to Hoon-Sook Pak, the daughter of Colonel Bo Hi Pak, one of Moon’s top aides.

Colonel Pak was the president of the Washington Times at that time.

▲ At the wedding Julia Hoon-Sook Pak held a photograph of her new husband.

Colonel Pak stated that his son-in-law’s sacrifice “carries far greater importance then the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.” According to Rev. Moon, his son needed to be married in order to move from prince to king in the spirit realm. Hoon-Sook was positive about her unusual marriage. “I will never forget in my whole life and for eternity this greatest honor of being Heung Jin Nim’s bride, which I do not deserve.”

Shortly after the death of Heung Jin, Unificationists in different parts of the world claimed to be receiving messages from him. Most of the alleged revelations took place in 1984, and in 1987 and were published in book form under the title The Victory of Love.

Revelations are also claimed from St. Francis, St. Paul, Kierkegaard, and Jesus. The last speaks both of his submission to Heung Jin and the True Parents. “I will show them that the Lord of lords and the King of kings and the king of glory is our precious Lord Sun Myung Moon and his beloved bride Hak Ja Han. They reign as king and queen of the entire universe. I, Jesus of Nazareth, known as the Christ, bow in humility before them. Any who will follow me must do the same.”

From 1984 Gerrit Jan also received messages from Jesus and Heung Jin Moon.

According to Algemeen Dagblad, Gerrit Jan ascribed “supernatural powers” to himself. 

Older Unification Church members who knew Gerrit Jan in the 1980s had described him as a very "ritual" person who had set up his own group with his family. 

Gerrit Jan’s wife, the mother of nine known children, died in 2004. It is possible he has even more children, the newspaper reported.

In an interview with De Telegraaf, a cousin said, “Gerrit Jan broke with the rest of the family a long time ago,” the 32-year-old cousin said.

“About thirty years ago anyway. There was a lot of disagreement between my parents and my uncle, and between my uncle and the Unification Church. At a certain moment he ran away angry. That was before I was born.”

Joseph Brunner and Gerrit Jan van Dorsten lived next door to each other in Hasselt, south of Ruinerwold before moving to the farmhouse in 2010.

Shortly after Brunner moved in next door to the van Dorsten family, they removed a fence that separated their backyards, according to a neighbor, Sandra Soer. Brunner left the block first, and then in 2004, Geert announced his wife had died of colon cancer, which came as a shock as no one knew she had been sick, Soer said. The family left not long after.

In an interview with the Netherlands' English language news outlet NL Times, the older brother of Josef Brunner said he was not surprised to learn his brother had been arrested.

Franz Brunner described Josef as "greedy, calculating and unpredictable" and the pair had not been in contact for a decade. "He always wanted money and was always after his own advantage.”

The brothers quarrelled over their parent's farm and fell out with Joseph moving out.

In Austria, Josef's brothers told the Kronen Zeitung website that he had joined a sect and had not turned up for the funerals of his parents in the past four years. "He thought he was better than Jesus," brother Franz told the paper. “We've had no contact with him for 10 years. I told him to get lost when he wanted me to become his financial guarantor.”

Police have admitted going to the farm in the past, following up reports of a cannabis farm on the property, but say they never entered the building.

A team of 30 police are now trying to solve the mystery of the farm at Ruinerwold. The farmhouse is still being investigated and other properties have also been searched.

Police will question Gerrit Jan van Dorsten why he reported to Dutch immigration in 2009 that he had emigrated.

A large white board found pinned to a wall had a series of mysterious drawings and numbers in black felt ink. They went from top to bottom, side-to-side and ran across each other without making any sense. The board, and a set of books and records kept by the two men, have been taken away by detectives for analysis and forensic examination.

Police have brought in thermal imaging cameras to search under the soil of the fields around the farmhouse and sniffer dogs to examine underneath floor boards.

In a statement the police said, “We are investigating whether a certain religion or philosophy forms the cause of their living situation. Currently, a great deal of new information is received by us every day. It is our duty to verify the veracity of this information, and its relevance for our investigation. The circumstances the suspects and persons involved lived in require that we be extra careful when conducting our investigation.”

Magic

There is a huge fear of magic both black and white in Christianity. This fear might have been created because magic is a very important aspect amongst pagan cultures including the Germanic culture. Viewing all magic as evil, might have been a way to try to eradicate it.

The Indiculus Superstitionum , about which I have made a post, mentions several forms of magic as things you should avoid at all costs. Per example: amulets, bindings, spells, seeing the future with the runes and animal bones, using animal organs, seeing signs in animal behaviour and women who practice seidr.

Predicting the future by looking at a shape of a specific animal organ is not just a Germanic habit. The Romans attached great importance to predicting the future by looking at the shape of a sacrificed animal's liver. The church, wanting to ban all pagan rites, declared these habits as black magic.

Tacitus has described how Germanic people viewed animal signs as very important clues. Some of these signs came from birds but horses were mainly used. Horses were viewed as highly significant, a tradition brought to Europe by the Yamnaya people. The horse was seen as a link to the supernatural, think of Wodan and his horse Sleipnir, the wild hunt and the Goddess Hel. Also the God Frey has a connection with the horse, it was seen as a sign of fertility.

Horses used for reading signs were white and not used as a work horse. A priest or chief would place the horse in front of a sacred chariot and walk with it. During the walk, the horse's behavour was observed for any signs. Horses were sometimes also sacrificed in order to read signs, the meat was ritually eaten in an feast. Sometimes the horses they used were just horses who died of old age. Horses were considered so important that sometimes people of nobility were buried with horses in their burial mounds.

Magic was also used to heal the sick. Especially amulets were worn against different types of diseases, a habit that still exists until this day. Per example a chestnut was worn against rheumatism or a piece of metal was carried to ward off evil energies. Metal was seen as a great repelling force. Here in West-Frisia, sick children were held above a well, the magic abilities of the water could heal a child. This we can be certain of to be a prehistoric habit. only the water from a well was considered sacred not the well itself. Sacred wells came with the rise of Christianity, these wells are often linked to a saint. Some of the wells you can find near old Churches in Europe, are actually the original pagan wells. Churches were simply build next to such sacred places.

Women who practiced witchcraft were held in high regard by the Germanics. Their council was followed, their prophecies was acted upon. Witchcraft was considered a thing only women practiced so of course during the early medieval ages, these women were demonized by the Church. This led to the creation of the classic evil witch we know about from fairy tales and the persecution of such women. I do have to mention that other pagan cultures like the Celtics, also have women practicing magic which contributed to the church's hatred of witches.

It was especially common for women to cast spells while spinning wool, flax etc. During the spinning, words were either said or sung, these words were woven/spun into the fabric. A clear example of this are the three norns who weave the web of fate of every living being at the roots of the yggdrasil. With the rise of Christianity, the church quickly banned women from talking during spinning/weaving. Traces of magical abilities during spinning can still be seen in fairy tales like sleeping beauty.

Despite church efforts, it was incredibly hard to eradicate these forms of witchcraft. We have archeological evidence of offerings, ritual murders, amulets, jugs filled with nails, hair and cut fingernails until the 20th century. In Ruinerwold, Netherlands a few jugs were found buried in a circle dated back to the 18th century. Also a few Spanish army jugs were found (dated from the 80 years war with Spain) with human remains inside, indicating a ritual sacrifice.

There is much we can learn about magical practices of our ancestors by looking at archeological finds and reading scriptures written by early Christians condemning these acts. These can all help in restoring the art of the Veleda/Völva. Some of the things I have described in this post are acts of witchcraft practiced in the Netherlands, because I am Dutch, my country is of course my main source of knowledge.

If any of you readers know of an old magic practice, please feel free to tell about it in the comments. I would especially love to learn more about Scandinavian and German traditions.

Public prosecutor says Moonie Doomsday cult dad should be released

▲ Gerrit-Jan Van Dorsten

February 18, 2021   DutchNews.nl The public prosecution department said on Thursday that it wanted to drop the case against a ‘Doomsday cult’ father who kept six of his children locked up in a farmhouse for nine years in a Drenthe village because he does not have the mental capacity to understand what is going on.



Evidence from medical experts given at a preliminary hearing in Assen earlier this month also pointed to the same conclusion. Nevertheless, the prosecutor told judges in Assen on Thursday that the decision will hit the four older children hard. ‘They have told us that they consider it very important their father be prosecuted and hope that the court will affirm what an enormous wrong has been done to them,’ the prosecutor said.



The father, 68-year-old Gerrit Jan van D, had a stroke several years before the family were discovered in October 2019, after the eldest son turned up at a bar in the nearby village of Ruinerwold. Then the story of how he and his five siblings had been held captive by their father for nine years gradually emerged.

Evil spirits At a previous hearing in January 2020, prosecutors said Van D. had run the household as a religious commune, punishing his children for ‘evil spirits’ by refusing to feed them or putting them into solitary confinement. Van D is accused of the false imprisonment and the sexual abuse of his children. A statement by the four older children was read out in court on Thursday. In it, they said that their father still has control over their younger siblings. ‘People say he is no longer a danger but that is not so,’ the statement said. We have been systematically indoctrinated by him since birth. The youngest have no resistance… we would like to see a safe distance between him and our brothers and sisters so they can develop into individuals with their own future.’ The final decision on whether or not Van D should face trial will be made by the court on March 4.



https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2021/02/public-prosecutor-says-doomsday-cult-dad-should-be-released/

From other reports:

They said that Gerrit-Jan Van Dorsten, 68, would be too ill to follow the trial proceedings.

He was charged with unlawful detention, child abuse, sexual abuse of two of the children, and money laundering in January last year.

Mr Van Dorsten suffered a stroke in 2016 which left him with a string of health problems, including vision and memory loss.

Prosecutors told a court hearing on Thursday: "It is impossible that the suspect will be able to follow the criminal proceedings and participate."

But the decision to investigate Mr Van Dorsten divided his adult children, with the eldest four supporting his arrest. The five younger siblings said they did not agree with the police investigation.

A statement from the eldest four was read in court on Thursday. They said they hoped their "indescribable suffering" would still be recognised.

"In all their vulnerability, [the children] have stated at length about terrible things they endured in their youth and young adulthood," the prosecution statement said.

What's the background?

Police found Mr Van Dorsten and five of his children in the isolated farmhouse near Ruinerwold village, north-east of Amsterdam.

Officers then arrested Mr Van Dorsten and a 58-year-old Austrian man named Josef Brunner.

Mr Brunner is an alleged accomplice who paid the rent on the farmhouse. He has been freed on bail pending his trial and denies wrongdoing.

Three of the children were not living at the farm but were still subject to abuse, prosecutors alleged.

Mr Van Dorsten often withheld water and food from his children out of a religious conviction that it was for their own good, they said in court last year. He was accused of tying one child up and keeping another in a doghouse for an entire summer.

"The children all speak of very serious physical punishment if their father thought there was a 'bad spirit' in them," prosecutors said. "That happened from a very young age, four or five years."

The children were not registered with the authorities and had never attended school. Five of the children have since received counselling.
