Okay, so this may have been discussed in former threads, but I had a question. I just watched the movie "Spotlight" last night. By the way, AWESOME movie, and I recommend anybody and everybody watch it. For those who don't know, it deals with the Boston Globe's investigative team that broke the story of the Catholic Archdiocese in Boston and the cover up of several years of child molestation, rape, and abuse.
As I was watching this, and having experience on this board for years, both as a poster and reader, I can remember several stories of people posting about abuse by a church leader and that leader getting the minimum punishment legally and in the church.
My question is this: Has anybody ever tried to do this type of expose on the Mormon church? It's settling of abuse cases? It's involvement with the Lamanite placement program and the abuses there? The pushing of young girls to give up their babies to LDS Social Services? The abusive treatment of gays, etc? More than anything, are there public records of these abuses in the courts? If it has been done, where can I read it??
