First, more alleged victims have come forward in the Wade Christofferson CSA cases, adding new layers to an already disturbing situation. As details emerge, the scope and handling of the allegations are becoming harder to ignore. Second, we take a deeper look at the ongoing trademark dispute involving John Dehlin and the LDS Church. New information sheds light on what’s at stake, why it matters in the broader landscape of Mormon-related content and commentary.
Other stories we’re following:
The Church rolls out new names for Young Women’s age groups—a shift that may seem small on the surface, but raises questions about branding, identity, and messaging.
A BYU professor is at the center of a serious legal situation, prompting renewed scrutiny around institutional response and oversight at Brigham Young University.
Leaders in King County suggest they may not be required to report child sexual abuse in certain circumstances—an issue that cuts to the heart of moral responsibility vs. legal obligation.
In Seattle, five LDS meetinghouses have been sold even as a new temple is under construction—raising questions about growth, decline, and the Church’s shifting footprint.
And lastly Parker Kingston was back in court.
We break it all down, connect the dots, and give you the context you need to make sense of what’s happening.
