Has this ad pushed Kirton McConkie and the LDS Covert Operations Department into overdrive trying to dig up dirt on this law firm?

Considering that Kosnoff has gone up against the Catholic church multiple times and won, and LDS Inc. multiple times and won, K&M is certainly has a file already and are probably starting to sweat if he is really going public with this.

Geez people. The Church is totally on top of this. The prophets, seers, and revelators who lead this Church with such prescience and prognostication just recently implemented a whole half hour of online training to fix this decades old problem. Too little too late as always.

Like most scandals it is the coverup that comes back to haunt you. Coming clean in the first place will cost you but never as much as a back end scandal.

I do wonder how prevalent this really is in Mormonism. In all my 60 years I have never got a hint of any shenanigans like this. Not saying it does not happen, just wondering if it is as common as it is sounding.

My ward was also urged to take the training. It was admitted that you can get through it in only 15 minutes without too much trouble.

I have taken both the official Boy Scout Youth Protection Training and the new LDS training. One big topic in the scout training that is not in the LDS training is how to recognize when another adult leader might be grooming a youth. It gives instructions for escalation. I don't want to read too much into this oversight in the LDS training, but it's like they are just trying to set up a situation to score on their own goal.
