What knowledge do you have of this church in particular or Churches in general?
There is a reason Ms. Wilbanks has not spoken herself and only through an attorney and church leaders through written statements, without question prepared by them for her.
I strongly suspect the reason is they will not let her speak for fear of what she might say or how she will answer questions on her own.
Also, this is the 3rd time she has bailed on a wedding. Something strang is going on there.
