Douglas Stoddard was a Mormon bishop in the Hurst, Texas area (Arlington 2nd ward) between at least 1986 and May 1989.
In 1992, Stoddard was convicted of a felony child sexual abuse charge of indecency with a child by contact and sentenced to 8 years of probation.
On 2023-08-15, the Salt Lake Tribune published a commentary piece by a victim of Stoddard, in which the victim included a link to Stoddard’s profile in the Texas state sex offender online registry.
The commentary piece urged the Mormon church to do better in sexual abuse cases by listening to and learning from abuse victims.
