09/12/05 Pleasant Grove,

Utah

LDS Andrew Bishop arrested for sexual abuse against children. “He had admitted that he
sexually abused five individuals in 10 years. Reports state Bishop, 33, told officers he
sexually abused his first victim nine years ago. The last victim was abused over the past
eight months. He was booked into the Utah County Jail on suspicion of 85 separate first-
degree felony counts for sodomy on a child and one second-degree felony count for
aggravated sexual abuse of a child. “Bishop “self-reported sexual abuse of children to
Pleasant Grove police after he was confronted by LDS church leaders who learned of the
abuse from an alleged victim.” There is no information about how long it took for Andrew’s
LDS Bishop to convince him to “self report.”
