Seven years of sex abuse: How Mormon officials let it happen


              Clouds hang over the area that what was once the home of Paul Adams and his family on the outskirts of Bisbee, Ariz., Oct. 26, 2021. Adams, a Mormon and U.S. Border Patrol agent living with his wife and six children, admitted he had posted videos on the dark web of him molesting two of his children, a 9-year-old girl and a younger daughter he began raping when she was only 6 months old. Adams killed himself after his arrest. The revelation that Mormon officials directed an effort to conceal years of abuse in the Adams household sparked a criminal investigation of the Church by Cochise County attorney and a civil lawsuit by three of the Adams' children.

              Matthew and Miranda Whitworth embrace at the home of the attorney representing their adoptive daughter in a lawsuit against The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in Tucson, Ariz., Saturday, Oct. 30, 2021. The Whitworths said they hope the lawsuit forces the church to change church policy so that any instance of child sexual abuse is immediately reported to civil authorities. “We just don’t understand why they’re paying all these lawyers to fight this,” Matthew said. “Just change the policy.” (AP Photo/Dario Lopez-Mills)

              The sun sets over the fence of the Lavender Pit Mining Overlook in Bisbee, Ariz., Oct. 26, 2021. The year 1995, when The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints established the “help line,” was a pivotal time for the church and other organized religions. Child sex abuse lawsuits were on the rise and juries were awarding victims millions of dollars. Perhaps more ominous for religious institutions, insurance companies were canceling their coverage of child sex abuse claims. (AP Photo/Dario Lopez-Mills)
            
              An old, disconnected pay phone stands near the post office in Bisbee, Ariz., Oct. 26, 2021. In 1995, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints established a “help line” for bishops and other church leaders seeking guidance on reporting allegations of child sexual abuse. But help line calls are often referred to a law firm that represents the church and is responsible for alerting the church to potentially costly sexual abuse lawsuits. In the case of Paul Adams, who repeatedly raped his two daughters, a bishop called the help line and was told to keep the abuse secret, because Adams admitted to the abuse during confession.

              Clouds hang over the area that what was once the home of Paul Adams and his family on the outskirts of Bisbee, Ariz., Oct. 26, 2021. Adams, a Mormon and U.S. Border Patrol agent living with his wife and six children, admitted he had posted videos on the dark web of him molesting two of his children, a 9-year-old girl and a younger daughter he began raping when she was only 6 months old. Adams committed suicide after his arrest. The revelation that Mormon officials directed an effort to conceal years of abuse in the Adams household sparked a criminal investigation of the Church by Cochise County attorney and a civil lawsuit by three of the Adams' children.
