Arizona court upholds clergy privilege in child abuse case

TL;DR

Arizona court upholds clergy privilege in child abuse case The Arizona Supreme Court has ruled that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can refuse to answer questions or turn over documents under a state law that exempts religious officials from having to report child sex abuse if they learn of the crime during a confessional setting. A lawsuit filed by child sex abuse victims accuses the church, widely known as the Mormon church, two of its bishops, and other church members of conspiracy and negligence in not reporting church member Paul Adams for abusing his older daughter as early as 2010. ]Production issue to delay delivery of Boeing 737 Max jetsFAA says it has sent 250 cases of unruly passengers to FBIKratos to increase production capacity, employment in OKCAirline stock shares fall on American’s so-so 1Q outlookVirgin Orbit seeks bankruptcy protection after mission fail© 2023 BridgeTower Media
