I think anyone from Utah and most TBMs from everywhere likely think of the morg as some kind of credible standard of leadership and ethics.
No one can recover unless they throw this idea into the undersink garbage bag with the coffee grounds and chicken bones.
Every one of us needs to grow into the role of being our own beacon of ethics. We have more to offer as authority figures than any so called mormon leader.
A morg "leader's role" is always to promote the organizational agenda. Doesn't matter that many of them are "nice guys" or that they do good works. That doesn't make them better than us. It only means they're doing more than the minimum in their callings. If they're loyal to the morg and their higherups, we have to question their authority and their agendas.
I'd trust Anagrammy, Stray Mutt or almost any exmo poster over every single church leader I've heard about met.
BUT most of all, I trust MY OWN senses logic and perceptions and I would hope that others would do the same. It's a huge piece of the recovery puzzle.
