3.
Plaintiffs bring this Complaint under federal question and supplemental
jurisdiction, 28 U.S.C. § 1331 and 28 U.S.C. § 1367, as this court holds original jurisdiction over
Plaintiffs’ 18 U.S.C. § 2251 claim, and the other claims in this action are so related as to form part
of the same case.
4.
Venue is proper in this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b)(2).
5.
This complaint references terms commonly used by members of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (hereinafter “LDS Church” or “the Church”). All parties were
members of the LDS Church (or children blessed in the Church and not yet members because they
had not yet reached the age of 8) at the time of the events described.
B. SEXUAL CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, AND
JOHN DOE 1
6.
JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE 1 (“Plaintiff Group 1”) are the
biological children of a sexual predator, hereinafter referred to as “Perpetrator.” The Perpetrator
is no longer a living person having committed suicide in 1995. Defendants DOE 1 MALE
DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT, along with Perpetrator (who were in the
same LDS ward in Bountiful, Utah) committed sexual abuse, when the opportunity allowed,
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 2
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 3 of 16
against JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and, after he reached approximately a year old, JOHN DOE
1, from approximately early 1984 to late 1985 (or early January 1986) in Bountiful, Utah. At the
time of the abuse, Plaintiffs were all under the age of nine. There were other similarly aged
children, believed to be in the same LDS ward, who, along with Plaintiffs, were also victims of
these crimes.
7.
DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT led what they
called “touching parties” at their home and at the Perpetrator’s home. These “touching parties”
were sometimes attended by acquaintances and friends of Defendants and Perpetrator. In addition,
a 16-year-old babysitter, who was a young woman in this same LDS ward, would be present from
time to time. It is believed that this babysitter was both a victim of crimes against her and a
perpetrator of crimes. This 16-year-old babysitter is no longer living as it is believed that she, like
the Perpetrator, committed suicide. The parties would occur one to two times per month,
seemingly whenever there was opportunity for the adults to isolate the children.
8.
During these “touching parties,” some of the Plaintiff’s in Plaintiff Group 1 would
be forced to undress and perform acts of sexual perversion. Typically, the “touching parties”
would begin with the adults instructing the children to “put on a show” for them, including dancing
and ending with the children undressing, while the adults applauded and encouraged. Once the
children were naked, Defendants, Perpetrator and any others present would sexually assault the
children by touching their genitals, and vaginally and anally penetrating them with fingers and
objects such as crayons or candy.
9.
DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT, along with
Perpetrator and others present at these parties, would force the children to touch the genitals and/or
breasts of the others present. The children were additionally forced to put their mouths on and lick
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 3
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 4 of 16
the genitals of DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and Perpetrator. DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and
Perpetrator would not fully undress but would expose their penises to the children and coerce and
manipulate the children to perform these vile acts, which the adults would call “marriage lessons.”
10.
On at least one occasion, the children were forced to watch as Perpetrator had sex
with (statutorily raped) the 16-year-old babysitter; on another occasion Perpetrator had sex with
the children’s paternal grandmother, Perpetrator’s mother, while the children were forced to watch.
11.
Furthermore, DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT, DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT and
Perpetrator would put candy on the children’s genitals and force the other children to lick the candy
off. JANE DOE 1 remembers this occurring when her brother, JOHN DOE 1, was just a year old.
Defendants and/or Perpetrator (depending on the occasion) would remove JOHN DOE 1’s
clothing, touch his penis until he was erect, put powdery candy on his erect penis, and make the
other children, including his siblings, lick the candy off him.
12.
Over time, DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT
began videotaping the “touching parties.” JANE DOE 1, who was the oldest of the children at the
time of the assaults, recalls the Defendants videotaping the children dancing and undressing and
continuing to film as the sexual assaults and rapes occurred.
13.
In addition to the children of Plaintiff Group 1, other young children from the ward
were also victims of sexual assaults and rapes at these parties.
14.
Included herein as Exhibits 1, 2, and 3 are redacted versions of declarations from
JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE 1, respectively, explaining the horrific abuse they
suffered at the hands of Defendants and Perpetrator. Also included as Exhibit 4 is a declaration
from JANE DOE 5, another victim of these crimes who is not a party to this lawsuit.
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 4
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 5 of 16
15.
In January of 1986, the mother of JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE 1
(hereinafter “MOTHER 1”) heard from a neighbor that the neighbor’s children were being sexually
abused. As a precaution, she took JANE DOE 1 to the Intermountain Sexual Abuse Treatment
Center (ISAT) to engage in counseling sessions. At these sessions, JANE DOE 1 disclosed that
she had been abused by the 16-year-old babysitter (who was previously mentioned in the
paragraphs above) and two unknown teenage boys. Shortly thereafter, MOTHER 1 spoke with her
local LDS Bishop and his First Counselor about the abuse. DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT, who
was the Second Counselor of this LDS ward at the time, was notably absent from the meeting.
Initially, these men were very supportive of MOTHER 1’s efforts to investigate the abuse.
16.
Shortly thereafter, JANE DOE 1 identified to MOTHER 1 that DOE 1 MALE
DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT sexually assaulted children at so called
“touching parties.”
17.
Roughly a week after DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE
DEFENDANT were identified for their part in these crimes against children, the children of
Plaintiff Group 1 and their mother arrived at sacrament meeting on Sunday to find an Apostle, who
had not ever visited their ward until that time, sitting with his daughter DOE 2 FEMALE
DEFENDANT and her children in the congregation.
18.
Shortly after the visit by the Apostle in late January or early February 1986, JANE
DOE 1 identified Perpetrator, her own father, as participating with DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT
and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT in committing these heinous crimes against children.
19.
After these disclosures, MOTHER 1 decided to take her children to Hawaii to visit
their grandparents. In March of 1986, Perpetrator began psychiatric evaluation and treatment at
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 5
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 6 of 16
Johns Hopkins in Maryland. He was discharged in June 1986 with the principal diagnosis of
pedophilia.
20.
Subsequently, the children of Plaintiff Group 1 and their mother were approached
by Neil A. Maxwell, another Apostle of the Church, who gave each of the children and their mother
a priesthood blessing in an attempt to help them heal from the horrors of the sexual abuse and
crimes committed against them. In these blessings, Maxwell discussed how the perpetrators of the
sexual crimes made “horrible choices” and that God would be the judge of the perpetrators.
Maxwell further blessed each of them for comfort and instructed them to “forgive and forget”.
21.
The children of Plaintiff Group 1 continued to receive psychiatric treatment for
much of their adolescence. Their psychiatrist was Dr. Paul L. Whitehead, a board-certified
specialist in child and adolescent psychiatry. Dr. Whitehead began treating JANE DOE 1, JANE
DOE 2, JANE DOE 5, and JOHN DOE 1 a few months after the abuse ended and continued to
treat them until they were 18, 16, 13 and 18, respectively. Included herein as Exhibit 5 is a redacted
version of Dr. Whitehead’s declaration, which confirms that all the children were badly damaged
as a result of the horrific sexual abuse they endured at the hands of DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT,
DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT and Perpetrator.
22.
Also included herein as Exhibit 6 is the redacted version declaration of MOTHER
1, detailing the disclosure to her of the abuse her children suffered as well as the steps she took
following the disclosure.
D. SEXUAL CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4, AND
JOHN DOE 2
23.
Sometime after divorcing MOTHER 1, Perpetrator began a relationship with, and
later married the mother of JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4, and JOHN DOE 2, collectively Plaintiff
Group 2. Perpetrator and the mother of Plaintiff Group 2 (hereinafter “MOTHER 2”) had two
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 6
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 7 of 16
children together, including JOHN DOE 2. MOTHER 2 married Perpetrator in 1988.
24.
In an effort to prevent further sexual crimes from occurring against Perpetrator’s
new children and step-children, Perpetrator’s first wife, MOTHER 1, called his second wife,
MOTHER 2, and attempted to inform her that Perpetrator was a pedophile and that he abused her
four children. MOTHER 2 did not believe her and relied upon the decision of Church leaders not
to excommunicate or punish Perpetrator as proof that Perpetrator and the Defendants did not
commit the heinous acts they were being accused of. Tragically, unbeknownst to MOTHER 2,
Perpetrator began sexually abusing the children of Plaintiff Group 2 almost immediately after they
moved into his home with MOTHER 2. He sexually assaulted JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4
two to three times a week on average and began sexually assaulting JOHN DOE 2 shortly after he
turned a year old.
25.
The sexual assaults committed against Plaintiff Group 2 by Perpetrator were
horrific. Perpetrator would isolate JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4 in the upstairs bathroom of
their home, fondle them, and vaginally and anally rape them with his fingers. Additionally,
Perpetrator would use his penis and other objects, such as brush handles to vaginally and anally
penetrate them. At other times, Perpetrator would force JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4 to
perform oral sex on him. On these occasions, Perpetrator was not fully naked, but wore his temple
garments during these heinous crimes. Perpetrator would often ejaculate on JANE DOES 3 and
4.
26.
These sexual assaults occurred most frequently in the upstairs bathroom of the
home, but sometimes, when MOTHER 2 was out of the house, also occurred in the bedroom of
Perpetrator and MOTHER 2.
27.
On one occasion, JANE DOE 4 remembers Perpetrator using excessive violence in
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 7
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 8 of 16
his abuse. That night, missionaries from the Church had attended dinner at their home; JANE
DOE 4 was asked to say the prayer at dinner and she prayed that JANE DOE 3, with whom she
shared a bed, would stop peeing the bed. Perpetrator became very angry at her prayer and that
night, after the missionaries had left the home, Perpetrator took her to the bathroom where he
inserted a pencil into her vagina and stabbed repeatedly and with such force that the pencil broke
inside her. Perpetrator panicked and fearing that he would have to take JANE DOE 4 to the
hospital, dug inside her vagina until he was able to retrieve the pencil. This was very painful and
caused considerable damage.
28.
As a result of the abuse inflicted upon her by Perpetrator, JANE DOE 4 had to
undergo reconstructive surgery on her vaginal canal at age 15 due to excessive scar tissue. Later
in life, JANE DOE 4 additionally had to have part of her cervix removed due to excessive scar
tissue, causing all her children to be born prematurely.
29.
As a toddler, JOHN DOE 2 would become hysterical if he was left alone with
Perpetrator, if he was made to shower with Perpetrator, or if Perpetrator ever changed his diaper.
30.
In August of 1995, JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4 disclosed to MOTHER 2 the
abuse they suffered at the hands of Perpetrator. MOTHER 2 contacted the Utah Department of
Children and Family Services and Perpetrator moved out of the house. The next day, Utah police
executed a warrant for Perpetrator’s arrest and he fled the state to Arizona. When he returned to
Utah in October of 1995, he committed suicide.
31.
MOTHER 2 would never have married Perpetrator but for the fact that she believed
the allegations against him were lies. As a devout member of the Church and employee of the
Church (she worked at the Church Office Building in the membership department) MOTHER 2
was familiar with the handbooks and polices of the Church. Per Church policy, she was convinced
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 8
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 9 of 16
that these allegations were false. Because, if true, the Perpetrator and the Defendants would have
been excommunicated for sexually assaulting and raping kids.
32.
Included herein as Exhibits 7 and 8, respectively, are redacted declarations of JANE
DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4, detailing the horrific abuse they were forced to endure for several years
during their adolescence. Also included as Exhibit 9 is the declaration of MOTHER 2, detailing
the disclosure to her of the abuse her children suffered as well as steps she took after the disclosure.
III. CLAIMS SPECIFIC TO JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2,
AND JOHN DOE 1 (PLAINTIFF GROUP 1)
33.
Plaintiffs incorporate all paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
34.
This claim is brought within 35 years of each of the victims’ 18th birthdays under
Utah Code § 78B-2-308(7) and has therefore been timely brought.
35.
Plaintiffs JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and/or JOHN DOE 1, (collectively
“Plaintiff Group 1”) were sexually molested, sexually assaulted, forced to perform sexual acts and
raped by DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT as explained in the
paragraphs above.
36.
DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT, by their
wrongful actions, proximately caused JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE 1 to suffer
severe and permanent, physical, emotional and mental injuries.
37.
As a result of the above-described conduct, JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN
DOE 1 have suffered, and continue to suffer great pain of mind and body, shock, emotional
distress, physical manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem,
disgrace, humiliation, and loss of enjoyment of life; have suffered and continue to suffer
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 9
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 10 of 16
spiritually; were prevented and will continue to be prevented from performing their daily activities
and obtaining the full enjoyment of life; have sustained and will continue to sustain loss of earnings
and earning capacity; and have incurred and will continue to incur expenses for medical and
psychological treatment, therapy, and counseling.
38.
Plaintiffs incorporate all paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
39.
Since January of 1986, DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE
DEFENDANT have successively utilized their status within the Church, both as leaders in their
own right and as the daughter and son-in-law of an Apostle of the Church, to cover up the crimes
they committed against JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE 1. This included (lockstep
with Perpetrator) lying to the police and influencing the criminal investigation; influencing leaders
of the Church to ignore Church policy and not convene a Church disciplinary hearing against
themselves or Perpetrator; and further actions which encouraged and enabled Defendants and
Perpetrator to escape criminal prosecution and not be excommunicated from the Church for the
heinous sexual crimes they committed against these children.
40.
Since 1986, these Defendants actively engaged in covering up this criminal activity.
While Perpetrator committed suicide in 1995, Defendants continued to be promoted to higher and
higher church callings, including a highly coveted and esteemed position as a Mission President.
Defendants, by their actions and inactions, have caused JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN
DOE 1 severe emotional distress. This emotional distress has been ongoing.
41.
Defendants were negligent in their actions, courses of conduct, and omissions as
described hereinabove.
42.
Defendants knew or should have known that emotional distress, with physical
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 10
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 11 of 16
manifestations, was the likely or foreseeable result of their actions, courses of conduct, and
omissions as described hereinabove.
43.
Defendants’ actions, courses of conduct, and omissions were the direct and
proximate cause of JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE 1’s severe emotional distress
with physical manifestations.
44.
The emotional distress sustained by JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2, and JOHN DOE
1 was of such nature that a reasonable person in their situation would have likely suffered similar
emotional distress, with physical manifestations.
45.
As a result of the above-described conduct, JANE DOE 1, JANE DOE 2 and JOHN
DOE 1 have suffered, and continue to suffer, great pain of mind and body, shock, emotional
distress, physical manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem,
disgrace, humiliation, and loss of enjoyment of life; have suffered and continue to suffer
spiritually; were prevented and will continue to be prevented from performing their daily activities
and obtaining the full enjoyment of life; have sustained and will continue to sustain loss of earnings
and earning capacity; and have incurred and will continue to incur expenses for medical and
psychological treatment, therapy, and counseling.
IV. CLAIMS SPECIFIC TO JOHN DOE 1
18 U.S.C. §2251 - SEXUAL EXPLOITATION OF A CHILD BY DEFENDANTS
46.
Plaintiffs incorporate all paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
47.
By their actions, DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE
DEFENDANT induced, enticed, and coerced JOHN DOE 1 to participate in the activities
described hereinabove.
48.
The Defendants did so with the intent that JOHN DOE 1 (and the older children
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 11
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 12 of 16
who were present at the time) engage in sexually explicit content for the purpose of producing a
visual depiction of such conduct.
49.
The visual depiction was produced using materials that, upon information and
belief have been mailed, shipped or transported in or affecting interstate commerce.
50.
JOHN DOE 1 was a minor at the time of production of these visual depictions (as
were the older children who were present at the time) and was at all times of filming less than two
years of age.
51.
This resulted in injuries that caused and will continue to cause JOHN DOE 1 to
suffer great pain of mind and body, shock, severe and extreme emotional distress, physical
manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem, disgrace, humiliation,
and loss of enjoyment of life; has suffered and continues to suffer spiritually; was prevented and
will continue to be prevented from performing his daily activities and obtaining the full enjoyment
of life; has sustained and will continue to sustain loss of earnings and earning capacity; and has
incurred and will continue to incur expenses for medical and psychological treatment, therapy, and
counseling.
52.
JOHN DOE 1’s claim is not barred by the applicable statute of limitations as he did
not discover that he was videotaped until 2018. As this claim is brought within ten years of the
discovery of the injury that forms the basis of this claim, it has been timely filed.
V. CLAIMS SPECIFIC TO THE JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4,
AND JOHN DOE 2 (PLAINTIFF GROUP 2)
A.
53.
Plaintiffs incorporate all paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
54.
This claim is brought within 35 years of each of the victims’ 18th birthdays under
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 12
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 13 of 16
Utah Code § 78B-2-308(7) and has therefore been timely brought.
55.
From approximately 1988 to 1995, while Perpetrator was married to their mother
and resided with them in their family home, Perpetrator repeatedly sexually assaulted and raped
his step-daughters JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4. The sexual assaults inflicted upon JOHN
DOE 2 started in late 1994 or early 1995.
56.
Perpetrator penetrated JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4 vaginally and anally using
his fingers, his penis and household objects. Perpetrator forced JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4
to perform oral sex on him. He also sexually assaulted JOHN DOE 2 when he was around a year
old.
57.
Defendants’ liability for the criminal acts of Perpetrator, who is dead, arises from
Utah Code § 78B-2-308(6)(b) which references § 76-2-202.
Here, Defendants engaged in
affirmative acts (as described in the paragraphs above) to embolden, help and therefore encourage
Perpetrator in committing these heinous crimes against Plaintiff Group 2.
58.
As a result of these actions, most specifically, Defendants protecting themselves
and Perpetrator from being excommunicated, MOTHER 2 believed that Perpetrator was safe and
a righteous priesthood holder. She then married him, allowing him access to her daughters.
59.
DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT, by their
wrongful actions, were a proximate cause of significant damage to JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4,
and JOHN DOE 2. Defendants are therefore liable under Utah Code § 78B-2-308(6)(b) for
encouraging Perpetrator in commission of further crimes against children.
60.
As a result of the above-described conduct, JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4, and JOHN
DOE 2 have suffered, and continue to suffer, great pain of mind and body, shock, emotional
distress, physical manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem,
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 13
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 14 of 16
disgrace, humiliation, and loss of enjoyment of life; have suffered and continue to suffer
spiritually; were prevented and will continue to be prevented from performing their daily activities
and obtaining the full enjoyment of life; have sustained and will continue to sustain loss of earnings
and earning capacity; and have incurred and will continue to incur expenses for medical and
psychological treatment, therapy, and counseling.
61.
Plaintiffs incorporate all paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth herein.
62.
From approximately late 1988 to early 1995, Perpetrator frequently and violently
assaulted and raped JANE DOE 3 and JANE DOE 4 vaginally, anally and orally with the use of
his hands, penis, and objects found around the house.
63.
During this period, and with full knowledge of Perpetrator’s prior sexual assaults
and rapes of children, DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT
continued to actively cover up their crimes and the crimes Perpetrator committed alongside them.
64.
Defendants were negligent in their actions, courses of conduct, and omissions as
described hereinabove.
65.
Defendants knew or should have known that emotional distress, with physical
manifestations, was the likely or foreseeable result of their actions.
66.
Defendants’ actions, including the conspiracy of silence they orchestrated, were a
direct and proximate cause of JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4, and JOHN DOE 2’s severe emotional
distress with physical manifestations.
67.
The emotional distress sustained by JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4, and JOHN DOE
2 was of such nature that a reasonable person in their situation would have likely suffered similar
emotional distress, with physical manifestations.
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 14
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 15 of 16
68.
As a result of the above-described conduct, JANE DOE 3, JANE DOE 4, and JOHN
DOE 2 have suffered, and continue to suffer, great pain of mind and body, shock, emotional
distress, physical manifestations of emotional distress, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem,
disgrace, humiliation, and loss of enjoyment of life; have suffered and continue to suffer
spiritually; were prevented and will continue to be prevented from performing their daily activities
and obtaining the full enjoyment of life; have sustained and will continue to sustain loss of earnings
and earning capacity; and have incurred and will continue to incur expenses for medical and
psychological treatment, therapy, and counseling.
Plaintiffs reserve their rights to seek permission from the Court to amend this complaint at
a later date to add other living individuals believed to be liable under Utah Code § 78B-2-308(6)(b)
for enabling and encouraging Perpetrator in commission of further crimes against children. This
may include, but is not limited to, the Bishop of this LDS ward, the Stake President, and the father
and father in law of DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT, and DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT. It is
believed that one or more of these persons used their influence in the Church and the community,
acting with DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT, DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT and Perpetrator so
that they did not face requisite punishment by the Church or by the law for the heinous crimes they
committed against children in the mid 1980’s. By their affirmative acts, it is believed that at least
one or more of these persons messaged to other members of the Church that Perpetrator and
Defendants were safe and trustworthy members by actively choosing not to hold a Church
disciplinary counsel resulting in the excommunication of those who sexually harmed children. By
doing so, at least one or more of these persons acted with DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and DOE
2 FEMALE DEFENDANT in encouraging and enabling Perpetrator to continue to commit similar
COMPLAINT AND REQUEST FOR JURY TRIAL - 15
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2 Filed 10/03/18 Page 16 of 16
heinous crimes against JANE DOES 3 and 4 and JOHN DOE 2.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for judgment against DOE 1 MALE DEFENDANT and
DOE 2 FEMALE DEFENDANT, as follows:
1.
Non-economic damages as set forth above, in an amount to be determined by the
jury at the time of trial;
2.
Economic damages for medical expenses for psychological treatment, therapy, and
counseling, and loss of earnings and earning capacity in an amount to be determined by the jury at
the time of trial;
3.
For Plaintiffs’ reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and disbursements to the extent
permitted by law;
4.
Statutory/civil penalties according to law; and
5.
For any other relief this Court deems just and equitable.

Jane Doe 1
DECLARATION OF
I,
Jane Doe 1
, declare under criminal penalty under the law of Utah that the
foregoing is true and conect:
1.
I am over the age of eighteen and competent to testify to the statements herein.
2.
From approximately 1983 to 1986, while I was 5-8 years old, my siblings and I
were sexually assaulted on numerous occasions by my father, Perpetrator , Doe 1' Male Def. & Doe 2, Female Def.
, who were in our local ward, my grandmother,
LS
, and a teenage babysitter,
who was also in our ward. There were also other teenagers and adults involved from time to time.

The abuse included "touching parties", which were gathering of adults, teenagers

and children. The adults involved were primarily Perpetrator , and

children, was named
CW :. When the
"touching parties" first started, my younger sister, Jane Doe 5., and the daughter of D1 D & D2D
,, who was Jane Doe 5 's age, were involved. As I got older, the younger daughter of D1D & 020
became involved as did my younger siblings, Jane Doe 2 and
BD
seeing
JohnDo•1:.
I also remember
, another young girl from the ward, at some of the parties. These parties
would happen frequently; sometimes on a weekly basis, sometimes 1-2 times a month. I remember
having "touching parties" on Saturday and then going to Church on Sunday and having D2D .,
aka "Sister D2D ", be our primary chorister and having her husband, D1 D, sit up on the stand
since he was in the Bishopric.
4.
Typically, the "touching parties" would start with the adults telling us to "put on a
show" for them. These shows were usually "dances" that me, Jane Doe 5 and the oldest daughter of
D1 D & D2D
would perfotm. These dances would always end with us undressing. I
remember this is when the applause from the adults and our babysitter would get the loudest. After

we were naked, the adults (and teenage babysitter) would sexually assault us.
This included touching our private parts and penetrating us vaginally and anally

with their finger and sometimes using objects like crayons or candy to penetrate us. I recall D1 D
being the meanest of the adults. He seemed to encourage the others to participate. There
were usually treats and bribes involved at every stage of the parties. The fondling included the
adults masturbating me and the other children.
6.
The adults also forced me and the other children to touch and masturbate them. The
adults would refer to the touching as "marriage lessons." I was forced to touch and lick D1 D and

's genitals. D1 D and Perp. did not always get completely naked but would expose their penises
and make me touch and suck them. I was also forced to touch the bare breasts of D2D as well
as my teenage babysitter,

It seemed to me that D1 D was in charge of the parties and would encourage all of

the kids to pe1f01m. He would also encourage involvement of the adults. At one of these parties,
I saw my father Perp. having sex with our babysitter,
with our grandmother,

watch us, or when our mom was out of town or away from the house. There were times when my

were on a date and the patties would happen at my house with just D1D & D2D,,
and sometimes another older adult man and/or friends of

were also present at these parties. I
remember Jane Doe 2 being touched. Similar to what happened to Jane Doe 5 and me, there were times
when each of these adults penetrated Jane Doe 2 's vagina with their fingers. There were other times
Exhibit 1 to Complaint, Page 3 of 13
- 2 -
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2-1 Filed 10/03/18 Page 4 of 13
when Jane Doe 2 was penetrated with objects.
10.
When John Doe 1 was just over a year old, he became an object at these parties as well.
The adults would get John Doe, naked and touch him. They seemed to delight in the fact that they could
make John Doe 1 erect at such a young age. They would put candy on John Doe 1 'S erect penis and make me
and the other kids lick candy off him.
11.
The adults started to video tape some of the "touching parties". I recall when we
were doing our "dance" and then being undressed that we were being videotaped. The videotaping
would continue during the sexual assaults and rapes that I have described above.
12.
There were often threats or punishments so that we wouldn't tell anyone what was
h appening.
Some of these threats or punishments included making us drink a concoction
containing urine and feces. Other times we were forced to drink coffee. After drinking the coffee,
the adults proceeded to shame us for being bad since we were breaking the Word of Wisdom.
They explained that since we were wicked, nobody would believe us, so we better not tell anyone.
13.
Throughout the years of abuse by my dad, 010, D20;, and others, I prayed to
Heavenly Father for the hmiing to stop. After we disclosed the names of our abusers, my mom
kicked my dad out of the house. We then spent some time with my Belle and Boppa, my maternal
grandparents, at their condo in Hawaii.
14.
While I was in Hawaii, my maternal grandmother typed a poem that I wrote about
the abuse I suffered at the hands of Perp,

After returning from Hawaii, I remember being visited by Apostle Neil A. Maxwell.
Elder Maxwell was a friend of my maternal grandparents. Elder Maxwell gave me and each of
my younger siblings a blessing by laying his hands on my head. During that blessing he said
something to the effect that the abusers had made "horrible choices". He talked about how God

baptized me when I turned 8 years old, during the time period that he, D1 D & D2D
and others were doing these tenible things to me. After disclosing the abuse, I expressed a desire
to be re-baptized as I believed that my original baptism was tainted and should not count because
Perp.
was not a worthy priesthood holder. This request for a rebaptism was granted sometime after
Elder Maxwell gave me a blessing.
17.
As pa1t of my upbringing, I wrote in a journal on an almost weekly basis. In some
of my entries, I wrote about the abuse I suffered. Some of the relevant pages are attached as

2.
Though I was too young to remember much of the abuse, from my conversations
with my mother, my sisters, and my therapist, I believe that from 1982 to 1985, from when I was
a newbotn to when I was 3 years old, my siblings and I were sexually assaulted on numerous
occasions by my father

our family friends from our Mormon ward,
my paternal grandmofuet,

., as well as numerous other individuals. I remember thinking
1>1 D 8, PZD
were ''icky" and wicked for the things they did to me. I
also remember all oftb.e stress it caused my family.
3.
I understand that I was objectified and sexually assaulted during ''touching parties"
by the adults mentioned above. I have a recollection of being told to kiss and lick the adults
present, as well as some of the other kids in inappropriate places. I was told to lick the penises of
the adult men. I remember that there were always multiple people present, and that this happened
on numerous occasions. I also remember that they placed candy in my bottom and touched my
bottom. I recall them placing candy on other kids and being told to lick the candy off.
4.
I specifically remember hiding under the tree at Christmas one year in order to get
away from my dad and his "marriage lessons."
5.
From my conversations with m,y mother and my sisters, I recall that I told my
mother that D1D & 020 threatened to run her over with 01 D's truck if I told anyone what went on
at the touching parties.

1.
I am over the age of eighteen and competent to testify to the statements herein.
2.
I was too young to remember any of the abuse, and don't have any independent
recollection of the events that my sisters have detailed, but I do remember how much turmoil

Throughout my life, I have grown up with significant problems such as body
shame, chronic depression, and have felt isolated and uncomfortable in my own skin. I have also
had intermittent substance abuse issues.

As a child, I had vivid recurrent nightmares of people touching me. In these
nightmares, I would wake up to discover that my pajama bottoms had been taken off, and that
the people had taken my blanket. They would then touch my penis and laugh at me.
5.
It was only in the last few months or so that I discovered that I was videotaped
and abused as a baby. It was not until my mother met with an attorney that she revealed to me
the full names and identities of my abusers, and that they had videotaped my abuse. Prior to that,
I had heard my mom and sisters mention'' 01 D & 020 "and how awful they were, but I had
no idea who those people were. After hearing their last names, l typed them in on google and
discovered my grandmother's stories, and the full extent of the abuse I had suffered.

It was a Sunday momint, either the end of Jluary 1986, or beginning of February
1986, when my two oldest daughters disclosed some of the �espicable acts that D1D & D2D
committed during the so called "touching parties." T.\lis Sunday morning, Pe,p. was already

at Bishopric meeting and I was getting my children ready to
lo to Church.
Jane Doe 5 was
very upset.
She was crying and saying, "I don't want to go, I don't w�t to go.'' Then Jane Doe 1 chimed in
Exhibit 6 to Complaint, page 2 of 9
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2-6 Filed 10/03/18 Page 3 of 9
screaming, "I don't want to go either, I don't want to see
'
1
D1 D
This was followed up with,
I don't want to see D2D either." I remember being confused as to why they were calling these
adult church leaders by their first names instead of Brother D1 D and Sistei D2D . Then, Jane Doe 1
and Jane Doe 5 told me about the ''touching parties.''
5.
When I asked them about what happened at the "touching parties" the girls had a
huge outburst, ripping up papers, disposable diapers, baby ·wipes, and anything they could get their
hani.s on. They were frantic. They were screaming. Intermittently during this outburst, they
would explain to me about what happened at the "touching parties" that were led by D1 D and
D2D •
The adults would encourage the kids to do a performance, like a dance. Then there
was a race to see who could take their clothes off the fastest amongst the children. This was
accompanied by enthusiastic applause from the pedophile adults present. Then the perfonnances
would continu�. The adults got undressed sometimes, and sometimes not. The kids explained
how
D1 D
would sometimes be in his garments and sometimes in his clothes and that he
would just take off his bottoms while leaving the top on.
D2D
would sometimes take her
top off and make my daughters and others touch her breasts. Other details included how D1 D
would point his penis at the child that was supposed to get up and dance or perform. I learned
from my two oldest daughters of how D1 D and
D2D
along with the babysitter and others
committed unspeakable sexual assaults and rapes (with a finger or an object). \Vb.en I asked my
children when this happened, they explained that it happened when
CW
was babysitting them
at my home, when they were playing at 010 & 020·s residence, or playing at the B family residence.
6.
A few days after my two oldest daughters identified 01 D & 020 as perpetrators, my
youngest daughter Jane Doe 2 told me,'' D1 D & D2D
lied. They didn't kill us." This prompted
a discussion \Vl.th all three oftny daughters about what this meant. My daughters explained that
Exhibit 6 to Complaint, page 3 of 9
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2-6 Filed 10/03/18 Page 4 of 9
had threatened to kill them if they told anybody. They explained howD1 D had
D1 D & D2D
shown them the �s that he kept in his house and could use to kill them. D1 D also tln·eatened to
kill them by drowning them. They explained that
D1 D
also threatened to kill me, their mother, if
they told anybody. He threatened that he would run me over with his big truck.
7.
This discussion continued, and my chiliten had another outburst.
Jane Doe 2
had
her "Fisher Price'' toy camera and she was pretending to videotape as my older daughters pretended
to kill D1 D and
This prompted further discussi•n and question about whether 010
D2D
•
020
had videotaped them. My daughters then tisclosed that most of the time the "touching
parties" were videotaped. They explained that only D1 D and

children to Dr
D2D
did the videotaping.

DECLARATION OF
Jane Doe 3
I, Jane Doe 3 , declare under criminal penalty under the law of Utah that the foregoing
is true and correct:
1.
I am over the age of eighteen and competent to testify to the statements herein.
2.
Around the time I was eight years old, Perpetrator married my mother,Mother 2 .
Shortly after the wedding, we moved to Cottonwood Heights. There, Perp. began to sexually assault
me and my siblings. This continued until I reached puberty, which was around age 13. When I
reached puberty, the sexual assaults not only abruptly stopped, but Perp. started to treat me like I
didn’t exist.
3.
The sexual assaults were horrific. Painful, both emotionally and physically.
Perp.
would take me into the upstairs bathroom and sexually assault and rape me. This included
fondling, and vaginal and anal rape with his finger. He also vaginally and anally raped me with
his penis and other objects, like brush handles.
4.
At other times, he would make me perform oral sex on him. He typically wasn’t
naked, but wearing his temple garments. He would expose himself and make me perform
oral sex on him. When he was finished, he would often ejaculate on me. These sexual assaults/
rapes happened about twice a week from the time he married my mother until I reached puberty.
Attached as Exhibit A is a record of an interview from August of 1995 where I explain these
assaults.
5.
Most of the abuse took place in the upstairs bathroom. A few times it occurred in
my parents’ room as well.
Perp.
would make me watch porn movies with him there. I remember
them being especially graphic movies, with oversized dildos and object penetration. I was
shocked because it appeared the actors were enjoying this. When Perp. penetrated me with objects,
it hurt so much and was more of a punishment.
Exhibit 7 to Complaint, page 2 of 7
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2-7 Filed 10/03/18 Page 3 of 7
6.
During this time, my mother had a very time-consuming calling in the Church. I
believe she was in the Stake Relief Society Presidency and a homemaking supervisor. I remember
her always being gone for Church-related business. When she was home, she slept most of the
time. My mother had TMJ and other health related issues. She had several prescriptions for these
health-related issues. She would take her pills and sleep. The sexual assaults and rapes occurred
when my Mom was either out of the house or sleeping downstairs.
7.
Growing up, I assumed that the repeated sexual assaults and rapes were
punishment. I always thought I was doing something wrong, and that if I was good enough, the
sexual abuse would stop.
8.
When I was 12 years old, I told my Bishop, Bishop
M. , about the sexual
assaults and rapes. He appeared shocked and in disbelief. He said he would investigate. Nothing
was done. This further certified to me that it was my fault.
9.
Jane Doe 4
After my disclosure to Bishop
M. , the sexual assault/rapes of me and my sister
continued. It seemed to get worse. Around this time, my mother became aware of what
was going on. She eventually called the police. The police started investigating Perp. .
10.
In addition to sexually abusing my sister
my half-brothers Justin and
John Doe 2

as well. After the police became involved, Perp. and my mom
split up. I recall my younger brothers being hysterical whenever they were told that they were

Perp.
would make them go there for

happened there, I just didn’t want anything to happen to them.
John Doe 2
would also become
hysterical if Perp. were ever to change his diaper. This is a distinct memory I have that led me to

DECLARATION OF
Jane Doe 4
I, Jane Doe 4 declare under criminal penalty under the law of Utah that the foregoing is
true and correct:
1.
I am over the age of eighteen and competent to testify to the statements herein.
2.
From about the age of five, when Perpetrator married my mother, to the time
of their separation and divorce when I was about 12 years old, Perp. physically and sexually abused
me and my siblings. I was sexually assaulted and raped two to three times a week on average.
3.
About 90% of the time, Perp. was a great parent and a role model. The other 10%
of the time, he was a monster. Most of the sexual assaults occurred in the upstairs bathroom.
Perp.
sexually assaulted and raped me in that upstairs bathroom too many times to remember. This
included fondling, vaginal rape and anal rape.
Perp.
vaginally and anally raped me with his finger
as well as with objects, like brush handles. He also made me put my mouth on his penis and suck
it.
4.
When
Perp.
would rape me with objects, this was not a gentle insertion, but
something meant to stab, to cut, and to hurt. Looking back on it now, I would call it genital
mutilation. I believed it was a type of punishment.
5.
There were times when
Perp.
would make me watch porn with him. This porn
seemed to feature only females, who would often use dildos on themselves and on one another. I
remember the porn being disturbing because the people on the screen seemed to like what was
going on, while I could only think of how much it hurt every time he did it to me.
6.
When Perp. would make me perform oral sex on him, he typically wasn’t naked but
wearing his temple garments. He would expose himself and make me perform oral sex on him.
Exhibit 8 to Complaint, page 2 of 4
Case 1:18-cv-00121-JNP Document 2-8 Filed 10/03/18 Page 3 of 4
When he was finished, he would often ejaculate on me.
7.
Perp.
seemed to use the sexual assaults and rapes as a form of punishment for bad
behavior. I remember thinking that I was the bad child and wishing that I could be as good as
Jane Doe 3
was, so that I wouldn’t keep being hurt. I thought that
Jane Doe 3
was good, and so I never
imagined that he was hurting her in a similar fashion as well.
8.
I remember one occasion when the missionaries came over for dinner. I was asked
to say the prayer at dinner. I prayed for
time.
Perp.
Jane Doe 3
to stop peeing the bed that I shared with her at the
was mad at me for this. That night, Perp. took me to the bathroom, and inserted a pencil
into my vagina, which he stabbed repeatedly and with such force that the pencil broke inside of
me.
Perp.
was panicked. Fearing that he would have to take me to the hospital, he dug until he
was able to retrieve the pencil. While this was very painful, I remember thinking that at least as
long as the pencil was in me, Perp. would have stop.
9.
At age 15, I had to have reconstructive surgery performed on my vaginal canal
because there was too much scar tissue, and I couldn’t use a tampon without excessive pain.
10.
Later, I also had to have part of my cervix removed because of the excessive scar
tissue. Due to having this part of my cervix removed, all my children have been premature births.
11.
While I never witnessed Perp. sexually abuse
me believe that it happened. Even as a toddler,
John Doe 2
John Doe 2
, I saw enough signs that make
would freak out, and become hysterical at
the thought of being left alone with Perp. or having to shower with Perp.
Jane Doe 3
and I ended up
holding that child for just about the first three years of his life to keep him away from Perp. While
I didn’t witness sexual abuse, I did witness Perp. getting mad and literally throwing John Doe 2 across
the room. As John Doe 2 grew and developed, he had a speech impediment and learning disabilities.
