From the article: KSTU-TV Fox 13 first reported the arrest Monday evening.

So not only have the Utah newspapers covered up Garn's hot-tubbing nude with 15 yo;
& his confession about it in 2002;
& these events any other time he has run for office since then;
& didn't bother to investigate why the victim was suddenly silent for 8 yrs;
but they also sat on a DUI charge;
& even after the other Garn stuff became public, they still didn't reveal the DUI charge they've sat on for four yrs!

The media outlets that have done this include the Deseret News & KSL.com -- both owned by the Lds church. (Garn is an Lds member)

Looks like you can "trust" the Utah media to cover the backs of its own, no matter what they do!

This makes me so ashamed of Utah.

I think DUIs are disgusting, however I have known people who where pulled over for speeding and given DUIs for one glass of wine. People make mistakes and should pay of course but their lives do not necessarily need to be ruined forever.
Having said that, being in a hot tub with a naked child IS NOT a mistake it is perversion. And for that he should be ruined.

Garn’s career is over.

But only a fanatic would make this an LDS issue. The attempt to hide the truth is a political action and cuts across all creeds. It’s how powerful humans behave all too often despite their group affiliation.

How about broadcaster Dick Nourse’s DWI and wife beating? Ever see that in the public square?

***..they still didn’t reveal the DUI charge they’ve sat on for four yrs! ***

Maybe he was just following the Kirtland Temple method of getting likkered up before he began blessing his friends and cursing his enemies.
