According to this, he had a previous episode of sexual misconduct.
https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900056607/former-utah-vice-squad-lieutenant-arrested-in-prostitution-sting.html"Moss was a lieutenant over the St. George Police Department's vice squad, according to investigators, but was forced to resign from the department due to sexual misconduct allegations.
Investigators at Peace Officer Standards and Training received a complaint in 2012 regarding allegations of sex on duty involving Moss. He relinquished his police certification in 2013, which according to administrators is the equivalent of having his certification revoked, meaning Moss can never reapply to be a police officer in Utah."
I would have thought that would have been disqualifying for becoming a bishop.
As an aside, it is interesting (but not surprising) that both KSL and Deseret News reporting mention that he was "a leader of a local religious congregation" without mentioning that he was a Mormon bishop.
