Robert Wilson was a Mormon stake president from 2011 to 2021 in Menifee, California.

A 2024 civil lawsuit against the Mormon church accused Wilson of covering up sexual abuse.

Wilson allegedly failed to report to police after the plaintiff told him that Todd Edwards, a stake member who later became a bishop in the stake, had sexually assaulted her.

Edwards was arrested for sexual abuse in 2013 while he was a bishop, and was convicted and sentenced to prison late that year.
