"Mormon leaders knew of two alleged victims of former Missionary Training Center (MTC) President Joseph Bishop in 2010, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said Friday.
In a new statement, which follows the release of a Brigham Young University police report on Wednesday, LDS Church spokesman Eric Hawkins said a woman referenced in a recording leaked this week had reported being sexually abused by Bishop to her local ecclesiastical leaders.
'When she reported the alleged abuse to her local Church leaders in 2010, they provided emotional support as well as professional counseling services,' Hawkins said. 'Mr. Bishop’s local ecclesiastical leaders were contacted and they confronted him with her claims, which he denied, and local leaders did not feel they could pursue church discipline for Mr. Bishop.'”
