LDS Jason Chad Larsen, a missionary from Idaho “was arrested in late May on suspicion
of molesting a girl, 8, at the school. Jason Chad Larsen, 20, a Mormon missionary from
Idaho, was charged with 1 felony count of child molestation for an incident in the school
cafeteria among other children and reading volunteers. Larsen reportedly put his hand in
the girl’s shorts and eventually inside her underwear while she was reading to him. The girl

asked if she wanted to read another book. She said no and returned to her class where she
