Sexual Abuse Lawsuit Filed by Edmund J. Scanlan Against Mormon Priest & Church of
Latter-Day Saints

“CHICAGO, Feb. 24 /PRNewswire/ – A lawsuit was filed on February 24, 2009, in the

Circuit Court of Cook County by attorney Edmund J. Scanlan on behalf of his client,
Markeisha Kite. The lawsuit alleges that Christopher W. Kite, her adopted father, sexually
abused Markeisha beginning in 1991 when she was four years old. The abuse continued
through 2001 when DCFS removed the girl from the home due to her complaints of sexual
abuse.”

“The suit also alleges that David Bromley, brother-in-law of Christopher W. Kite, sexually
abused Markeisha in Kite’s home from 1991 through 1996. In 2002 Markeisha obtained an
order of protection against defendants Bromley and Kite.”

“The Mormon Church is named as defendant in the suit because Kite sexually abused the
minor Markeisha on at least ten occasions in the church facility at 2727 West Lake Street in
Wilmette, Illinois, and as an ordained priest of the church, Kite was under direct supervision
and control of the church.”
