Description

A document from October 2012 labeled “Attorney Work Product” from the Kirton McConkie law firm, a Salt Lake City law firm used heavily by the Mormon Church. It was used as a living document to maintain updates on situations involving multiple attorneys. Almost all the situations summarized in this document describe some sort of sexual abuse.

This document was first published by MormonLeaks on September 11, 2018.

Redactions and Clarifications

Redactions have been made to protect the identities of the all parties, particularly the abuse survivors. Redactions are color coordinated as follows:

Data Redacted Color Location Blue * Church personnel Green Survivors Purple Perpetrators Red

* If the event happened outside the United States, the redaction is labeled “Foreign Country”

Notes of clarification:

The acronym “ALC” stands for area legal counsel.

In the last case shown on page two, the perpetrator is serving his mission in a state that does not have mandatory reporting laws for ecclesiastical leaders and his home state does.

A representative from Kirton McConkie responded to MormonLeaks’ request for comment by solely asking that we redact the identity of the victims.

The Mormon Church ignored our request for comment.
