From the article: PROVO -- Provo city will pursue misdemeanor charges against an LDS bishop who allegedly failed to notify authorities after an underage congregant told him she had been sexually abused. Amado Rojas will face one count of failure to report child abuse, according to Provo Police Sgt. Mathew Siufanua.

Curious timing.

The already open question on the table as of late September was: Why didn't the Lds bishop report a sexual abuse/groping act that was reported to him?
See Police questioning girl's bishop after alleged church groping [Did Lds bishop report groping?]

About six weeks go by. Nothing. Then the Penn State case breaks wide open.

Suddenly the most Mormon city in Utah (Provo) gets a conscience and elects to charge this Lds bishop, after all.

Hmmm...

The Lds church has already lost two other bishops who were deported earlier this year:

* Illegal alien liberal policy nuances... note these headlines & stories: 2 LDS branch presidents in Utah deported to Guatemala, El Salvador
* and Considering The Disconnect Between Some LDS Church Members and Leadership on Immigration

Question: Have Lds bishops covered up other sex abuse cases as a pattern?

This seems to be an ongoing matter in the Mormon church:
* April, 2011: Mormon Church Denies Prior Knowledge of Susan Brock Affair With Teen Boy, Which is a Lie
* March, 2011: Sacramento News & Review
* February, 2011: Father of The 5 Browns pleads guilty to sexually abusing his daughters
* December, 2010: Did fellow Mormons cover up officer's baby molestations?

Then there's the slew of multiple Oregon Boy Scout abusers, many of whom were Mormon:
* Boy Scouts sex files now evidence in Oregon lawsuit
* Scout officials, Mormon leaders were warned of abuser, suit says
* Men sue Mormon Church, Boy Scouts in abuse case

* And the most recent article: Child sex abuse claims mount against Boy Scouts

Why doesn't the Mormon church draw the same MSM inspection level as, say, the Roman Catholic church and Penn State?

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has zero tolerance for abuse of any kind

Well the current incarnation of the Salt Lake City sect anyway....

Didn't Jos. Smith have a thing for young girls?

And then there's the whole fLDS issue.

“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has zero tolerance for abuse of any kind and is extremely proactive in its efforts to prevent abuse and to help victims when it does occur,” Trotter wrote.

Unfortunately some of these lds leaders are just following the example of the lds founders and their proclivity for underage girls.
