45 Year old BYU Urban and Regional Planning faculty duped an emotionally-struggling student into immoral acts in his university office then told her not to tell any one:

"BYU, owned by Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, said he hasn't been employed there since mid-April."

That sounds like "a few months short of fifteen."

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Forgot to include the word "allegedly".

Remember McKenna Denson or whatever her real name was?

Okay, the professor has allegedly been removed from the staff directory and is allegedly no longer employed by BYU.

Better?

There is still no evidence that Bishop was lying when he said he assaulted various women. If we take him at his word. . .

The guy even looks creepy...

Several of the headlines refer to him as a "former" professor,
sort of obfuscating the fact that he was a professor when it
[allegedly] happened.


What does this say, once again, to special discernment? What a
joke.

I agree he's creepy. There's something wrong with those eyes...

OMG, he's a reptile!

Hehehe

That’s definitely not the light of the spirit!

Maybe it’s the light of an evil spirit. ;)

Worst possible nightmare, as Enlightenment (of any kind) is the most feared enemy. Otherwise, this episode of 'Urban and Regional Planning' would have been quietly hidden and the alleged professor's career continued undisrupted.

(Betcha other Urban and Regional Plannings will be soon surfacing.)


Alas poor Yorick! Now in the light, there is but one recourse for BYU.

Okay, here's something odd. I googled the address associated with him in several news articles. It appears to be his home address for a nice-looking 4 bedroom suburban house. He also uses it as the address for his sideline urban planning business.

But it also pops up repeatedly as a business address (maybe 5-6 times over the last 18 years) for other ventures including, somewhat recently, a dental lab! A couple of the earlier hits I get -- i.e. one previous owner appeared to use it as a base for his painting business -- but the more recent hits are just strange. I find it odd that one suburban address pops up so many times in business filings. Is this a Utah thing?

As for Michael, he just made his life a whole lot harder. I feel sorry for his wife and kids (I assume he has a wife and kids, but I didn't see any indication of them in my search.) They don't deserve this. Neither did the young international student. It looks like he deliberately chose someone who was especially vulnerable to abuse.

This is just one compelling reason why people who try to incubate businesses should have a P.O. Box.

And I agree: if this turd is married with children, they deserve better. As did the student.
